@ricefz Thank you! This is my first journal & I'm not sure about something. I have 10 signatures, each with 5 folded sheets (he wants a lot of pages). This will require 10 holes in the soft leather cover. How do you determine how wide the spine will be? Press down on all signatures or stack them & measure the width across? Ten holes seems like an awful lot. Should I perhaps combine the signatures (10 folded pages per sig.), decreasing the number of sigs? Thank you for your help!

This is fantastic for a beginner. Thank you!

@CanadaDrysgirl I glued an extra piece of leather (or thick fabric, for some of them) inside along the spine to make it sturdier. You could use cardboard, but I'd wrap it in fabric first, or maybe decorative paper--it will show a little, and cardboard is kind of ugly unless you're going for a grunge look, in which case I'd go for it! Good luck, and thank you for watching~~

10 sigs is a lot. I'd definitely condense them. I don't measure the width of the sigs; I use graph paper to make a pattern of the spine, figure out where the holes should go, then sew the sigs in where they fit--it's not about how wide they are; it's about how much room you have in the width of the spine. There can be spaces between the sigs if need be.

@ricefz Again, thank you! Did you ever figure out how you were going to keep the journal you showed us how to make ... closed? LOL I'm thinking about using a strip of the same cover leather, make slots in the back and just wrap it around. Making this journal is great fun!

@NolaGB I think I did exactly that--I used a long thin strip, enough to wrap around a couple of times. I don't remember how I attached it, but I think it was the slits in the back and then threading it through itself--the common way those strips are attached. (Sorry--I don't know what it's called, but you see it on commercially made leather books that have those straps.)

Enjoyed your video and learned a lot, but I'm trying to figure out how to hide the knots on the outside of the spine. The book (journal) I'm making is for a male friend, so beads won't work. Any ideas??

@NolaGB Maybe something metal instead of beads? Washers? Small metal things with holes drilled in?
