3 hole pamphlet stitch
Important:
Leave a 5mm overhang of the pages when measuring the cover - the book must be able to lie flat!
Important for you to cut the corners diagonally, but leaving 3mm spaceso as to cover the corners of the card!
I was very happy with the outcome of this workshop, and I've learned a very valuable skill. I think I could apply bookbinding to my practice, as I am making a comic. I was thinking that the comic should be presented in traditional comic format (i.e. stapled paper) when I finish with it, but I could produce a special hardback edition of it, as I would like to make use of this new skill!
