The Book of Unsaid Things (Bookbinding part 1) - Sewing the Text Block
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 лис 2021
- This is the first part of a bookbinding series. In this video, I demonstrate how I make my text block using kettle stitch binding.
Materials I use:
- 70 gsm book paper
- Sewing cotton threads
- Bone folder (the one I'm using is plastic, not real bone)
- Sewing needle
- Needle/thumbtack to make holes in paper
- PVA glue
- 200 gsm blue paper/cardstock for the endpapers

The stitching looked so easy to do that I was shocked how much difficulty I had to keep everything simple. I ended up with knots, paper torn, loose ends and broken thread. It is very difficult to reach a level of experience where things look easy. And that's before I got to the glue part. Oh my God!
Aww, that's okay! It was like that for me too when I was starting with bookbinding. I'm sure you'll improve in no time :)
@Black Licorice not really, I'm sorry..
But I would say that using a curved needle makes it a bit easier to stitch
It is not a task, it's an art 🙏
Coming in months late with advice: Applying beeswax *thoroughly* to the thread helps immensely with snagging and tearing issues, and you definitely want to make sure you've used a thick enough awl for your hole punches.

I like the quiet, peaceful way this video is made. It is a lovely craft, well done! Thank you 🙂
Watching this video has given me the hope i need to make my own journals from scratch ive never done it your way but i have tried with metal wire and it was just too messy and not organized. I kept trying to find videos to teach me how to do it with glue and or thread and so far ive found your channel today! Im gonna try your way now and see how well i can do it. Because whenever someone can teach me something visually i can do it but if its words and nothing else i struggle with that. Learning disabilities can be hard but with people like you, you make it so much better. Thank you😊
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm really glad my videos can help people find new ways in making books, I hope you have fun making your journal😊
Your videos are like mind therapy. I can look at it for 20 minutes non-stop.
Thank you. I learnt much.
When I was a youngster I learnt also by watching my elderly father. He passed away & watching your work brought loving memories of my dad.
Greetings from newzealand aotearoa

Wow your video is pure art
Super Super presentation ❤
Thankyu👍👍👍
Excelente, gracias por compartir thanks😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤😊 desde la CD de México ❤
Just noticed at the start of the video there is a light coloured stain on your workbench that looks very much like a picture of a dog...an accident or deliberate?
A tip I picked up watching DAS Bookbinding was to use a wooden block to sew on. It lifts the work up off the bench and makes it a lot easier. Since I started doing that I've found the quality of my sewing has gone up a heck of a lot and it is easier to get consistent tension throughout the bookblock. I use 3 pieces of 3/4in ply glued together.
Hahaha yes my workbench is an old one, I guess there was a hole and someone tries to cover it up with wood filler, but it went wrong somehow. Anyway, thank you so much for the tip! I appreciate it so much, I will definitely give it a try :)
Keeps us bookbinders healthy, so keep up the good work...
just Super ❤
thank you sharing this👍
lovely! i'm actually binding a book right now, and looking at this video for guidence. how do you know how much thread to cut? :)
Thank you! I didn't measure it, I just tie it and connect with a new thread if I ran out of it. I hope this helps :)
@@rururereii it turned out just fine :) thank you! also - what glue are you using here?
@@efrat-sh glad that it did! I'm using pva glue for most of my books :)
WOOOOOOOOOW THANK YOU SO MUCH I LIKE THIS
Super 👍

Excelente trabalho uau arrasou 👏👏👏👏
Does the grain of your paper run long or short? I have a hard time finding printer sized paper that runs grain short, which limits the size of your text block significantly, if you want the grain to run parallel to the spine.
Hello, sorry for the late reply.. The paper I use does have short grain. It's called book paper, usually used for printing novels. Hope you can find the paper you're looking for! Usually, if I don't find the paper that suit my needs, I will buy big sized papers that are in rolls and cut them myself :)
Ótimo trabalho parabéns 😊
Great video but very hard to follow where the thread was being placed. I think it would help enormously to use colored thread next time.
Hello, thank you so much for the advice! I will use colored thread for future videos.
I did have a video where I stitched a book with darker colored thread with the same stitching method, here is the link ua-cam.com/video/VlTp3UkuvDI/v-deo.html
I hope this one is clearer and easier to follow!
Uau arrasou 👏👏👏👏👏
Thank You!
thanks for helping
muy bello y lindo
THANK YOU ATE
Very meditative
what to do when thread ends on the needle? how to continue from there?
Hello! I usually just tie it with a new thread using the regular double knot or a weaver's knot. I follow a tutorial by DAS Bookbinding on how to do a weaver's knot, here it is: ua-cam.com/video/fS0TknH4MUc/v-deo.html
Hope this can help you!

I have a question - is the thread you're using waxed?
For this book, I didn't use waxed thread (it was just regular sewing thread). But nowadays I am using waxed thread!
What material are you using for that bookpress at 13:02?
They're regular mdf boards, but I cover them with transparent tapes
Hello. Very good video and very well explained. What type of thread is used for sewing?
I used regular sewing thread, but I coated it with beeswax to make it stronger and last longer. I did it by running the thread on beeswax
what are the measurements for the holes?
For this, since the paper length is 21cm, I punched the holes every 3cm
Impressive how the piece of string kept getting longer and longer
Thank you for sharing this 🤩 I'm trying out new skill and notebook making is what I planned to. You're a blessing!
Would you mind if I ask what is the gsm of the paper you used? TIA
Thank you! Glad my video can help :)
The paper I use is only 70gsm, it's pretty thin, but it's good enough for regular note-taking with regular pen.
If you want to use pen with heavy ink / gel pen, I recommend 90gsm and above.
Hope this helps :) good luck!
I have 2 yrs of experience in binding of books but still I actually do silly mistakes normally
What are the mistakes?
I want to print books with my regular hp printer, so what software I should use to print binding sections like in this video? Every 5 sheets are one section, isn't it? But If I tried to print books it prints whole book as an one section
Hello! You can use software like Bookbinder 3.0. I have the tutorial in the beginning of this video: ua-cam.com/video/VlTp3UkuvDI/v-deo.html
Or you can print each sections as booklets. For example, in the print setting, you can choose to print page 1-10 and print as booklet, after that choose page 11-20 and print as booklet, etc.
I hope I explain this clearly. If not, feel free to ask :)
@@rururereii oh, thank you so much! That helped me to print sections using regular office printer 🖨️ I'm your subscriber now 🥰
@hansibinuz you're welcome! Thank you for subscribing :)
How many layers of glue did you apply to the spine? Is it ok to apply a second layer when it's touch dry?
I usually do 2 layers. Yes, it's ok! I also do the second layer after the first layer is dry :)
@@rururereii Appreciate your reply. ❤️
what are you using under the paper when poking holes to protect the table? it looks like a strip of some kind of foam? thanks!
It's called eva foam! But you can use other things like cardboard or a piece of wood
At the stitching part I do it just like her but mine won't stay in the place what does this mean
That's totally okay! You can tighten the stitching a little bit, but not too tight. But it's natural for it to move. You can glue the spine so it can stay still, that's also what I do for this one. I hope this helps :)
❤❤❤

Very nice🇮🇳
I've a question. Which size of paper do u used before folding?
Btw love ur videos and❤😊
Thank you so much! I used A4 sized bookpaper :)
@@rururereii after folding it turn A3?
@user-lo9ui8xm3t no, after folding it turns into A5 :)
@@rururereii o yes yes😅 thank you🌹
@user-lo9ui8xm3t you're welcome! you can ask anything anytime :)
I would have appreciated more if colored thread used for contrast with white paper. Otherwise, thank you for the instructions.
Hi! Thank you for the advice!
I do have a tutorial on a different book where I used dark colored thread, here: ua-cam.com/video/VlTp3UkuvDI/v-deo.html
I hope this one is more visible and easy to follow through :)
👍👍
Light is too strong . Hard to see details . Thanks anyway
Very good
Like y love yo
How do you measure your thread/binding material to get enough to do all sections together?
I don't really measure the thread. If I run out of thread in the middle of stitching the book, I will connect it by tying it with new thread. Hope it helps :)
Yes it does thank you for showing every step. You do great work. Thank you
Do you use one paper when you fill. It
Every time I stitch, there are always gaps between signatures. How can I not do that?
Like for Coptic stitching and making hard cover books
Hello! Gaps between signatures when I stitch is also something that I'm struggling with. But for me, pulling the thread and tightening it (without straining it) between stitches helps with the gaps a little bit.
Though it didn't really help when I did it with coptic stitch.
For hardcover books with kettle stitch, I also get gaps between signatures, but I eliminate the gaps by pressing the signatures together and then glue the spine, and it will stay like that without gaps. I hope this explanation makes sense, and can help you :)
@rururereii so the glue and compression is the thing that removes gaps? Oooh... that's a bit sad cause I don't have a book press. Oh well, I'll work with what I got.
@@lapimli9539 Yes, exactly :)
I also don't have a book press. I press mine between 2 sheets of plywood and press using c clamps. Or if that's not available to you, you can press it between 2 heavy books. Good luck!
@rururereii Thank You very much!! :D
The intrumental music you used made me fell asleep
А бумага не приклеиться к дереву?
Why? How many? What size? Every video on this that I find is someone doing it, not telling someone else HOW to do it themselves! How many pages to a bundle? How do you figure where to poke through the holes?
Hello! Really sorry for the lack of explanation bc this is my first video on youtube and I was still inexperienced in making videos. I have a video that has a little explanation on bookbinding with similar stitch : ua-cam.com/video/VlTp3UkuvDI/v-deo.html. You can watch it if you want to!
To answer your questions, the size of the paper that I use in this video is a4, the paper is called book paper. The one that you called bundles is called signatures in bookbinding, I usually use 5 sheets of paper for each signatures. For the holes, it usually doesn't matter where or how many you poke the holes, but I just measure the width of the paper and divide the holes evenly.
I hope this answer can be helpful for you!
@@rururereii thank you! I will watch it. If you ever do a step by step video (please do) send me the link please!
Put your mind to it, and you can do it. Very simple and easy.

what is the type of paper thaat you are using ? znd do you use it in all of your journals ??
Hi, so sorry for the really late reply.. The papers I used are called book papers, usually used for printing novels. Sometimes, I use regular office paper, or watercolor paper (depending on what you're gonna use it for). But book paper has that 'feathery' texture and if you write on it with ink it kinda bleeds on the paper, so I'm not sure many people will like it. But i don't mind. Hope this helps :)
Ilike😊😊😊
👍❤📙
What is the name of the tool you use to cut the edges of the book and where can I buy it? Thank you
It's wood chisel! You can get it at your local hardware store :)
Thank you very much! I am from Bulgaria!
Hello! I want to make a book and I would like to know what is the material used at 1:47 ? Thank you!
Hi! Sorry for the late reply. The thing I used underneath the paper is eva foam (pretty thick, maybe 1 cm?) And the template for the stitch holes is from a regular cardstock
hi. I have the same system. I use a one half inch soft board for underneath and dowel, from arts and crafts, Walmart, Michaels or so. For the template, I use plastic cover sheet, the dots, I made some tiny cuts, triangle shape, so the dowel will sink into the hole, it is easier on the eye. I use plastic because the cardboard will wear off after a couple of books. the needle would be too painful for fingers. I punch six holes per signature (every set of 4, 5 or more sheets is called a signature) and they are uniformed.
How many centimetre do you leave between every hole please ?
It's 3 cm. But there's no rule for it, I just try to make evenly spaced holes depending on the length of the text block. So you can definitely put more or less, as much as you want. Hope this helps :)
Thank you so much ❤️
You're welcome!
❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉😮😮😊😊
Which type of paper was used.. Is it A4 sized
The paper is called book paper, and yes it is a4 sized
but how to print the pages ? so it will make sense
Hi, sorry for the late reply. Usually if we want to print them, we print on the paper before we bind the book :) We can't print them after we bind the books. I just made this book with blank papers. Hope this helps!
Takio
How much did it cost to make this?
For me it's around $10 - $12, depending on materials that I use. Because sometimes I have to buy one ream of paper, instead of only a few sheets of them. And the fabric is calico canvas fabric which is pretty affordable
@@rururereii Is that to make the whole book or just this part of it? ( sorry for so many questions 😣)
Yes, it is for the whole book!
It's fine, I don't mind answering questions. Feel free to ask anytime :)
Where should I find you for some training and what are your contacts
Hello! I'm really sorry, but I don't do training because this is a hobby for me and I'm in no way an expert.. Maybe look for a bookbinding workshop in your local area :)
Price ?
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹😍😍😍😍😍😍
Slow motion
How many sheets per signature ?
In this one, 5 sheets per signature
What is the type of the paper, please???
Hey! It's called book paper :)
What type of thread do you use?
For this book, I just used regular sewing thread
Which paper is this???? Please answer
It's book paper, usually used to print novels
what happens if I use other type of glue rather than pva??
It will most likely to lose flexibility. Because the reason why people use pva glue for bookbinding is because pva glue is strong, acid free, non toxic, and the book can remain flexible.
But it doesn't mean that you can't use any other glue for bookbinding. I've seen videos where people make books with hot glue! I think it just depends on what kind of bookbinding method you're using.
I hope this helps :)
Which gum were you used?
I'm very sorry.. I don't quite understand what do you mean by gum?
Glue
Oh sorry.. I use pva glue
Which is paper??? (paper 's name)
It's called book paper, usually used for printing novels
This book binding name pls..
It's called kettle stitch binding
