Making a Simple Book

To make a small catalogue of my digital designs, I turned to youtube. An easy to follow tutorial on Saddle stitching a book together was very helpful and soon I had a book!

I trimmed the pages to size (when folded) before bookmaking, so that they would line up evenly.

All you need is something to make holes with (an awn is recommended) thread, a needle and a ruler and pencil for marking out points for the holes. It was quick, fun, satisfying, and gives good results, so I will definitely try making my own books again.
