Introduction to Book Binding //
Saddle Stitch Binding
A very easy and affective method of book binding.
Simply make 3 holes along the seem of the book, Thread the needle through the three holes in sequence and finish by tying the thread in a double not on the inside.
Japanese Stab Binding
Again, a very simple binding technique. Make 5 marks in a piece of card and place your pages on top of this card. With a machine, drill the marks through to make holes. Then thread the string through in sequence and tie it up inside with a double not.
Accordion Binding
This technique involves gluing together a number of sheets folded in a V shape. The cover is made up of two separate pieces of, in this case, cardboard. The effect is that of an accordion as the pages splay out and unfold into a zig-zag shape.
