I love the binding and the leather staps. Very beautiful!

~meliee Feb 9, 2012 Student Artisan Crafter

Thank you very much

~Fledermausfisch Feb 1, 2012 Hobbyist

really nice one!

did you made the "Long stich"?

~meliee Feb 3, 2012 Student Artisan Crafter

It's not longstitch, it's called something else but I don't remember what it was. I found it in a book about bookbinding

In fact, I don't even think they mentioned a name for the stitching in the book, just the person who came up with it. But i'm sorry to say I don't remember that name either ^^

~Fledermausfisch Feb 6, 2012 Hobbyist

what a pity, the binding is very nice

Can you show the back in the detail, please

I´d like to try it

~meliee Feb 8, 2012 Student Artisan Crafter

Yeah, I'm sorry, my memory sucks ^^
You mean how to make it? Or you want a closer picture of it?

~Fledermausfisch Feb 10, 2012 Hobbyist

ja, how to make it, at hand of closer pictures would be fine

Perhaps you have made pictures how you did it?

~meliee Feb 10, 2012 Student Artisan Crafter

I don't really have time right now to make a tutorial, but you could buy the book, it's called Adventures in Bookbinding

It's all in there. Not my exact book but the stitching

~Fledermausfisch Feb 13, 2012 Hobbyist

ok, thank you for the hint

~Ochiru Jan 31, 2012 Hobbyist Artisan Crafter

This is great - I really like the spine design and you could get lost for hours looking into the details of that marbled paper!
