Study Task 09 - What is a book? - Bookbinding

Book Binding Techniques

On the booking binding workshop I took at Vernon St, theres are the techniques we explored and learnt.



simple stitch 
  • 3-hole stitch
  • simplest bind
  • easy and cheap to make for small notebooks



5-hole bind

  • punched 5 holes into each piece of card
  • knot made in the middle pages so it cannot been seen on the outside
  • weaved thread through one side and then continues by wrapping it around the sides and continuing 



  • two separate sides
  • makes a chain of paper between them - made up of folded paper glued together
  • covers made up of card layered with sticky-back material
  • no stitching was involved
