Description

A beautiful and worthwhile book. Next Book PleaseThis innovative approach to bookbinding demonstrates an array of creative techniques that elevate handmade books into extraordinary works of art. Easytofollow, wellillustrated directions for more than 25 patterns explain how to make seven different kinds of books with popup panels and pages that explode from the spine as well as slipcases, tassels, and other distinctive features.The guide begins with instructions for a simple accordionfold book. Successive projects build on methods readers have already mastered and introduce new skills, including the pamphlet stitch, ideal for photo albums and scrapbooks; tacket binding, the versatile stitch of medieval Europe; and the Coptic stitch, employed by Christians of ancient Egypt. A fullcolor photo gallery, with contributions from more than 60 artists, offers further inspiration for enhancing and personalizing projects by using alphabets, bestiaries, botanical illustrations, and other designs. The author includes a glossary of terms as well as information on materials and tools.Wellwritten, imaginative and just plain fun to read. I learned a lot about ways to make books that I never dreamed of. Ms. Laplantz is a creative genius. Bassocantor ReviewsThis is a gorgeous book filled with beautiful projects.
