Book #89

Islamic Binding 2

Today's book is a typical example of Islamic bookbinding, consisting of full leather over boards with a fore-edge flap that tucks under the front cover, and hand-sewn Islamic endbands of course.

I am enjoying seeing all your varied bindings. Your work is beautiful. I particularly love the folded pocket book structure you posted recently and wondered if there was any way I could learn how to make one? A book or tutorial perhaps?

Thanks Acornmoon! I left a comment on that earlier post (#85) with a link to a book that includes instructions.
