This is so incredibly helpful. I was looking for books at a thrift shop and accidentally bought five that had the spine ripped out because the dust cover covered it. I want to recycle the book but show respect to the art so this is perfect! Thank you!
Thank you so much. The way you have explained it makes it sound so much easier than other videos. I'm a practical learner so it's easier for me to pick things up after watching somebody else do it
I am sooo glad I came across your channel and especially this tutorial! I felt so intimidated by the paterns I've seen, but you have made it more approachable for me. Thank you so very much!!
There is an easier and quicker way to do letters than a book pattern. You can create a stencil on any basic pc drawing software, even paint. Make sure your letters are squashed together, i'd say between 1/2 and 3/4 the length you'd like the word to appear. Print, back with card and cut out. Place the stencil in the desired place and trace with a sharp pencil. I recommend clamping the book in some way, between your knees is the easiest way. (if using a paper-back book it may be an idea just to have a hard-back either side to prevent the book bending) As the letters are squashed it will look odd but don't forget folding the pages increases the thickness of the book. This way you mark all your pages in seconds, no fiddly measurements, and as long as your pencil is sharp, and so are your folds, the marks will not be visible. After this, fold away as the lady shows. This method works on most basic flat facing designs, for 3D sculptures it is best to use patterns.
How do we get the paper folding guide with the measurements? I’m new to trying this and searched your craft page and also downloaded the app and don’t see it thsnks
Thanks a lot for this video. I did watch twice and I think I understood clearly the general instructions, but I am wondering how, at the end of the project, the folded up and down sides would look as, for example, the angle of the first page folded (up border) came out too far from the angle formed by the second page folded. I think it won’t look even, or I’m not figurating well... Would appreciate your comments. Tks again.
Hi, Debbi. How do I customize a book? I want to make several books with a different name for each. Will I be able to do that or will you make the patterns for me? My plan is to make these books for my Grandkids for Christmas. Thank you.
My question is, how do you know how wide the book need to be. I know have the right number of pages and the right length but how do I know if the page is wide enough to make the fold?
Great question! Multiple folds are usually done with Two or three pages in a row: Page 1: top of letter ‘b’ Page 2: middle of letter ‘b’ Page 3: bottom of letter ‘b’ And then repeat. When it’s finished, you can’t tell that it used separate pages
Hi Debbi - can you please give us the information on the pattern book you showed with the keys you used - I cannot find something similar on the Internet, but I don't know the author or name of the book folding reference you used in this video. Thank you! Lynn
This whole video gives me so much anxiety. The markings and the folds and the numbers, I don’t know how it could be fun lol. BUT it is beautiful and I appreciate it as art and would love one as a gift 💛
Why would you mess up pages of a book to do this ? Then how would you read the book after you would fold the pages in it? & every time you want to do this you would need to buy a book every time. 🙄🤦🏻♂️

Thank you for explaining the instructions clearly! I spent way too long watching other videos that got me no where. 👏👏👏

Hi, do you have a link to a video talking about this? I want to make sure I understand what you mean
thank you so much this is the best tutorial i have seen so far ! :)
How to get the pattern numbers like my own pattern or picture?
How do we get the paper folding guide with the measurements? I’m new to trying this and searched your craft page and also downloaded the app and don’t see it thsnks
Where do I get a pattern.? I want to make one for my sister with her name, Candy.
I can't find the patterns and I really need the one for Faith. How can I get it?
Thanks for sharing. Probly overthinking this but ... so if pattern says you need 500 pages do you get a book with 500 pages or 250 pages?
Good Lord whoever discovered this had time to play! Well at least its documented down to a science now for all to give it a go.
Amazing stuff! Thank you!👍
If it's possible to make each fold at a 90 degree angle should it be done that way does it change the outcome?
Thanks a lot for this video. I did watch twice and I think I understood clearly the general instructions, but I am wondering how, at the end of the project, the folded up and down sides would look as, for example, the angle of the first page folded (up border) came out too far from the angle formed by the second page folded.

Where do you get your pattern books?
Oops! I just saw your tutorial on specific words (names) in a book. Would you mind just doing it for me. I get easily confused.
Hi ur video is simply nice
What type of s/w ur using for this pattern for any of the word or name anything... Plz add link in the description box...
Bro I stumbled across this in someone’s room. Fucking phenomenal, the talent.

🌈🦋 You are an excellent teacher thank you !🙂🌹
Thank you thank you ...So nice and clear. :) and I think your voice is soothing (don't laugh lol)
Where do get the patterns to fold?
My question is, how do you know how wide the book need to be. I know have the right number of pages and the right length but how do I know if the page is wide enough to make the fold?
Not how wide... But how tall.
how do you remove the extra pages cleanly?? thank you
I would like to do one that says And33s how many pages would I need. Can you give me some kind of starting point
If you 'lost your place' can't you just divide your page number that you're on, by 2?
“As a woman, I personally never read the instructions.” Um. What?
Jenn Summer facts.
James Zarr no
She’s being honest 😂 most women don’t
Seriously? I’m a woman and I read instructions… sexist much?
@@Drogas3653 disagree… I don’t know any woman that has to put something together and ignores the instructions. BS
I need to know where I can buy a template that shows how to fold the words WE RISE.
Hi Anthony, we have a selection of book folding patterns available here goo.gl/R4gdUV
how do u make multiple folds on a page
Great question! Multiple folds are usually done with Two or three pages in a row:
Page 1: top of letter ‘b’
Page 2: middle of letter ‘b’
Page 3: bottom of letter ‘b’
And then repeat. When it’s finished, you can’t tell that it used separate pages
What book is this from with Believe and Faith?
Where can get the pattern for FAITH?
Very well explained! Thank you!
How to prepare that pattern... can you please tell us Ma'am
Hi Debbi - can you please give us the information on the pattern book you showed with the keys you used - I cannot find something similar on the Internet, but I don't know the author or name of the book folding reference you used in this video. Thank you! Lynn
