Hello friends,
Today, we are preparing the signatures to be sewn in. There are 4 signatures with 8 pages in each one. After preparing them, we sew them into the hidden spine. I love the hidden spine for many reasons. After sewing the signatures into the hidden spine, we glue the hidden spine into the cover.
This series is applicable to any book binding needs. Though this is for a reference journal, the steps and process is the same as any journal construction.
I hope you enjoy!
