Weeks 4 & 5 were given over to the Longstitch with Linkstitch, the binding I most frequently use thanks to it's versatility, flexibility, strength and the opportunity it provides to make the most of exquisite leather. It's a 15th century limp leather German binding and is a delight to make. Here's an example:
Seems like everyone REALLY enjoyed learning this binding and lots have chosen to make it again next week in the Personal Project session to end the course. Here are some of the lovely books participants made:
I thoroughly enjoyed sharing this binding with you all and it was a joy to see all the fabulous colour combinations you chose. Well done, everyone - it's not the easiest of bindings and you all did really well!
See you next week - don't forget to bring all the books you've made so far on this course for a mass photo session, also your relevant worksheets & materials if you're bringing your own.
