Scenes from the Road of Life
This month's Handmade Book Club's book is Buttonhole Binding.
I decided to make a Fodder Folder using in this style. I used file folders and sewed vinyl sleeves into them. Then I covered book boards with some fabric I've had around for a while.
I got it all assembled today.
I'm making a sketchbook using some drawing paper I've had for eons. Last week I made the 'book block' using that drawing paper. Then over the weekend I glued some Kozo paper to the back of a piece of fabric for the cover. Today I glued that fabric to the book boards to make the cover (all after watching a few videos).
I have a roll of drawing paper that I've had for over 20 years. It's time to use it. I cut a bunch of pieces from it to make pages for a sketchbook. After watching a few how-to videos, I made the 'signatures' and sewed them together to make a 'book block'.
