All the pages are scored multiple times. You may use your favorite scoring method: clear gridded ruler, measuring rules (metal spacers), ruler or templates with your choice of an embossing stylus or pointed bone folder. The book is finished with a basic pamphlet stitch on a triangle spine. People wishing to decorate, embellish or fill pages using their favorite creative media are welcome to stay at the meeting longer.
Materials To Bring:
- 6 pieces of cardstock, any color(s), for pages, 4 1/4" x 11" folded in half to size 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
- 2 pieces of cardstock for covers, 4 1/4" x 11" unfolded
- 1 piece cardstock for spine, 4 1/4" x 6" folded in half to size 4 1/4" x 3"
- 1 piece scrap paper 1/2" x 4 1/4" for a measuring jig (not a piercing jig)
- double-sided tape, any width up to 1" (strength of tape holds pages to spine)
- Perle cotton or linen thread, color to complement or blend with center page color (stitches are visible only on center page, and they hold pages together)
Tools To Bring:
- self-healing cutting mat
- scissors
- bone folder
