How to sew a front-bead endband! ✨

And you’re done 🙌

[helena-frere]

View on unicolor headcap and endband works on my latest binding « Les frôlements infinis du monde » by Richard Rognet (« The world’s infinite light touches » i guess)

On the edges of the book, you can also see the border between outside leather (greyish) and the inside leather (white).

God I need some vocabulary.

I’m delighted and horrified to find a hand-sewn endband on this bible from 1873. Most big books like this have pasted on endbands. I’m delighted to find a sewn endband, but horrified at how few tie downs there are attaching it to the book. #bookbinding #bookconservation #biblerepair #sewnendband #endband #bookarts (at Big River Bindery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnPeVCTOZJQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Comeback on Tumblr after 9 years with these pictures of endbands

Looks like this bookbinder used to wear a fancy shirt. The material for endbands sometimes came from striped shirt fabric, or in this case, red check. It’s always fun to see how these books were put together. #bookconservation #bookrepair #endband #cleaningthespine #bookarts #atlantabookarts (at Big River Bindery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCLkFYbpCg-/?igshid=1orqvp6vybz69

I think I like the fashion sense of the bookbinder who made this bible, but feel bad for the shirt he probably sacrificed to make it. We’re rebuilding a bible endband from the 19th century. #biblerepair #bookconservation #bookrepair #endband #stripedcloth #bookbinding #bookarts #guildofbookworkers #cbbag (at Big River Bindery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CkmAgecpNaM/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We had fun recreating this endband for a Bible on the bench right now. I wonder who’s short was used to make it. #bookconservation #bookrepair #endband #bookarts #atlantabookarts (at Big River Bindery) https://www.instagram.com/p/CZQeywIMkXn/?utm_medium=tumblr
