#ethiopian binding

[shatteredceramics]

Petite reliure à deux aiguilles (ou éthiopienne)! Je voulais trop essayer cette technique qui permet d’avoir deux fils différents dans une même couture, et donc ici deux couleurs ehe!! Très simple à faire et très amusante, maintien très bof malheureusement. J’essaierai de rajouter des feuilles entre les couvertures et les paquets de feuilles qui sont contre!

Février 2021.

Attempted Ethiopian Binding today with some misprints.

I’m not sure if I ever use it for something, though. Doing those holes between two cardboards is a little tricky, and I might not want to risk it with proper materials.

Mishaps happened. I had to do completely new holes on the other side, because I’ve ripped open the board.

I do like the finished look, though. It would fit some fantasy stories set in old-ish times.

This is the book I made with Shanna Leino. I learned a ton of things like a pretty rad 4-needle sewing (see previous post), how to pare leather, how to braid end bands, how to hot tool leather, etc. It was a really spectacular experience and I'm extremely happy with the finished project. And I feel very privileged to have had the opportunity to work with Shanna. Amazing woman.
