I was procrastinating my studies until now, this motivated me too
Nice Coptic Bind.
Couple things to notice.
1) Grain direction. I noticed you folding the papers perpendicular to the spine. This can cause the spine to bow out in the center. You can see this at around the 21:51 mark of the video, where the head and tail of the book are thinner than the center. Also at the 22:20 mark when you opened the pages a bit, you can see the corners of the pages bending in toward each other - This is a result of the grain direction going against the spine.
2) Stitching. At around the same time frame mentioned above (21:51), you can see on the left hand side of the spine that it is tighter than the remainder of the book. This can also cause the bowing effect in the spine. Coptic stitches do need to be tight, but not synched down so as to squeeze the papers together. This can cause the spine to warp inwardly after repeated opening of the book, and eventually will cause pages to start to tear around the stitching.
Remember that boards have a grain direction as well. They should be lengthwise to the spine. Generally speaking, when applying paper to the boards, it may help to ever so slightly wet the board with a bit of water. (just a slight sponge swipe). This will help the PVA to adhere to the board deep within the fibers and can correct some front and back bowing. While its still wet from adding the paper, it's usually a good idea to press the board between some weights so as to help even out the convex bowing.
Gluing down the papers to the boards - Solid!
Hole spacing for the stitching - Solid!
Linen Threads - Solid!
And I believe you were using a binding specific PVA as well - Awesome.
Great Video. I know it is not a tutorial, but could very easily serve as one!!
really amazing tips, thank you!
Most supplies seen in this video are from Hiromi Paper in Los Angeles! If you have any questions, ask away!
(This video is not meant to be instructional but I hope it sends some peace / calm your way)
i really love your videos! now i just want to make a sketchbook of my own!
im interested is that wax you use on your thread? and what for??
@@vitchinator thank you! ❤️ it’s beeswax which helps prevent the thread from tangling while you’re making the sketchbook!
@@PearFleur wow thanks!!! im gonna def try this someday!
Thank you. I love all of your projects. 💓
what type of rule do u use?
Im trying to remember the steps to make it but im just so mesmerized by this calm video that I just end up staring at my screen taking in this peace!
Such an amazing video!

If you want a good bookbinding tutorial, I recommend the one by Rajiv Surendra. Good day 😊🌼
The way the string moves looks like claymation…it’s mesmerizing
You, girl, was sent from the heavenly gods to inspire, soothe and amaze us, mere mortals.
This is my comfort yt channel, and this is just what I needed after a tiring day
Aw 😄❤️ Hope things are going well! How has your day been today?
I know that a lot of people have complained about the music in your videos. But you’ve honestly turned me on to so many musicians I now love. If this is no longer a thing, can you please drop what you’ve been listening to on Insta or something? I really love everything you’ve shown me so far. Thanks.
your voice could literally put me to sleep (in a good way!!) its so ✨silvery✨

i truly admire how meticulously done everything is. i wonder how long this video took you?
I once made a sketchbook like this. Took me around an hour to get a booklet with 40 openings, (80 useable pages) because prepping the paper with the holes was tedious and took a while....
@@Death-Dott I've made several books like this, and a pro tip is to not use a sewing needle in leu of an awl. The first one I made must've taken at least 6 hours, but to be fair and honest, I was prepping two sets of 50 sheets (100 usable pages) so that my mom and I could each make one, then during the actual making had to baby her a little bit.
also, here's why you shouldn't use a sewing needle (TW injury):
the sewing needle got stuck between two seperate layers of my skin while I was home alone, prepping the pages. It took me a while to get it out.
@@nyandoesthings I don't know how you managed that, but at I at least made premade holes. Which means I couldn't have gotten injured this way. Prepping the holes is probably one of the best things I could've done, according to your comment. My hands are stronger than I always think and I could've poked myself severely and probably have bloodshed.
I learned how to book bind so I could make my husband a scrapbook for our anniversary. It's so relaxing and fun to learn
Omg that is so cute, Im in the process of making one for my boyfriend as its been a year together ❤️
@@hollybaker4866 congratulations!! Here's to many more years to come!
the gentle music and asmr make me feel calm, really thankful, i wanna try making a sketchbook now :3
Your videos always have such a soft,light and comfy look, love it!
your videos are what first inspired me to try bookbinding and every time you upload one of these videos, it inspires me all over again. thank you so much hon
This is incredibly satisfying & comforting to watch!
I've actually made a sketchbook like this (nowhere near as neatly binded and aesthetically pleasing as yours), and considering how long it took me to make it, I can't imagine how long it took you to film the process. Props to you!
This video is so artistically pleasing and just relaxing to watch, love it
Always absolutely beautiful and skillfully done. Love the camera work, the audio, the books. You are very inspirational. You got me to order from choosing keeping and I’m loving every item I bought.

absolutely beautiful, beginning to end, amazingly soothing! you're crazy talented. can i please make a suggestion though? it would be so satisfying if you spent a bit more time at the end flipping through the pages & showing off the finished books!
Your videos make me very happy
Very peaceful and calm video. Btw, I actually handmade a sketchbook (for the first time ever) from your last bookbinding video. I really loved the final look these sketchbooks give. ❤❤❤

So happy to see another Sketchbook making video from you. I watched a previous one by you and I thought I would have a go myself and have been making my own sketch books for a while now. It's actually a really lovely thing to do and a chilled way to spend an afternoon/weekend.There are so mant lovely handmade papers available now to put in a sletchbook and a dazzling range of decorative papers for the covers Though I do often make my own decorative papers for the covers.I love making sketchboks so much that I deceiced I would stop buying ready made ones. I bought all the tools and quipment that you use as well and am so glad I made the investment. It's quite a relaxing thing to do and I always have a sense I'm crafting from history if you know what I mean and I love that I can create something unique that has a purpose too. So thank you for the inspiration of your wondrful videos,because I have discovered something new and creative that I've come to really love. (Matt)
P.S I will check out the Hiromi Paper store online.
I have been making my own sketchbooks for quite some time now ever since finding your brillaint videos,and I have saved so much money,I realised it was actually cheaper in the long run to get the materials and tools to make my own than for what it cost me for some brands of ready made hardbacked sketchbooks. It means I can use my favourite papers as the pages. But I also love using handmade and recycled papers too.Etsy is a good place to look for small artisan paper makers. I tend to make A3 sized sketchbooks,A5 and postcard sized. It's actually really lovely thing to do, and I know I will never go back to buying ready made sketchbooks. My first few sketchbooks were a bit rough looking,but as I've made more I have got better at it and I love how they look when completed. I learned paper marbling too so I can make papers for the covers of my sketchbooks.Give it a go you won't regret it, I also make them as gifts for artist friends too. (matt)
I really needed watch this, i feel relaxed
The marbling effect on the pages is super easy to do! I would highly recommend trying it out :)
It turned out so nice and cute! This youtuber gives me a lot of ideas to do during this pandemic :D
so pretty!
Woah this is finally getting me to fall asleep 😴

I was fortunate that I had a book arts course at my community College. The patience to properly make a sleek and proper looking book is amazing. This video makes me want to pick it up again!

Watched it again awake...totally unfathomable.
I've been binging all your videos haha. Do you have a shop? I would totally buy prints and crafts from you. I LOVE your channel. It's so peaceful and productive
Asmr videos usually set my teeth on edge but somehow I can watch your videos! Now I'm really tempted to make one of these.
