T,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful as always. Please explain to me how you do the doubled one. I would love to try it. Do you do all the brackets at once, or do half and then the other half?

Yeah, you'll notice that the bottom of the binding is not linked/locked. that's because instead of going to the next signature, I simply go back up the signature. If you wanted to, you could do a small little stitch at the bottom to do a coptic style lock (like I did for wright's book) but the book (this one), even without the bottom link, is still sturdy and unwobbly.
