    Three Japanese Bindings Workshop This very decorative style is based on a method commonly used in Japan and provides a simple solution to the problem of binding single leaves. It involves a technique called “stab sewing” which uses the thread or ribbon as a decorative feature on the outside cover. The technique can be applied in a variety of ways, and books can be made from a wide range of materials. Very little glue is needed for this binding as it is the form of sewing that holds the book together.

    Quick And Easy Leather Journal Workshop Make a small leather journal in a jiffy using the button hole stitch binding technique.

The opening in the spine allows for endless variation by changing the shape of the opening, and layering cover materials.
