1, 2, and 3-Section Sewings Book by Keith A. Smith

$30.00

Non-Adhesive Binding Volume II is a thorough text for sewing one, two or three sections onto continuous support paper or vellum covers. The sewing path of each book creates a decorative sewing on the spine. Described by text, diagrams, and photographs, almost all of the 122 sewings were devised as the book was written. In addition, there are 42 photographs of bindings by 22 contemporary binders. These sewings require no equipment—only a needle, thread, and scissors.
