Coptic Binding on Boards

[DaphneSmall]

This is amazing....I just finished decorating covers from corrugated cardboard, and was looking for a way to bind them into a book, hopefully using the coptic stitch to open flat, and I found your video. Thanks so so much! Perfect!

Thank you. This was well done and very easy to follow.

Thanks for posting this - it's so clear that I've been able to bind my book very quickly without making a mistake (a very rare thing for me!)

this is absoutely brilliant, thank you so much for taking the time to make it. I really appreciate the time you've spent to ensuring it's fully understandable with the cuts to the inside of the signatures, etc as you go. Extremely helpful <3

PS. Will you marry me :) ♫♫ i'll bind the guest book..♫♫........... :-O xx

¡Aún más claro! Muchísimas gracias de nuevo, de todo corazón.

Observando el cosido, sabía que tenía que ser algo parecido a enlazar los diferentes cuadernillos con nudos de cadeneta, pero ahora sí que lo entendí. Muchas muchas gracias...

I love the idea of using the cardboard. I have some at work that I am now going to turn into books. Your coptic binding technique is a bit different than the one I have used (i usually start mine in the first signature) but I am going to give yours a try, I like it. I loved your original coptic binding videos and was glad to see you back.

Thanks for your wonderful teaching videos. I have viewed several showing the coptic binding techniques. I recently made six journals to be sold at our school's auction. Everyone marveled at the binding and it is now my favorite of all binding techniques I have learned.

Thank you for a very instructive demo. I made a book while watching.

[jaescala]

That is great! I am happy it was helpful.

[jaescala]

I find that the coptic is one of the easiest ones to teach. You should have no problem making some books if you take your time and watch the other videos. Good luck - Jim

I've been needing a tutorial on coptic stitch. Had an instructor go on about how hard it was. I've got the next two days off and will definitely be making some with this stitch! Thank you for taking the time to make a quality video
