124 Signatures


Seems like all i've been doing lately is preparing signatures! I have 128 of them here, to be used for 14 books. Ten of them are orders, the other four are just extra. I just poked holes in 80 of them. Incredibly mundane...not my favorite part of bookbinding. But it seemed worthy of a photo and blog entry, nonetheless.

Wow, that's a LOT of work!! Did you use just an awl or the Japanese Drill Punch?

Worthy of a blog post indeed! Can't wait to see the finnished articles!

I love it! The signatures are my favourite part. Don't you just love all that crisp paper? Though after 124 you're maybe not feeling so enamoured anymore...
