Again I have shown for some time no books. Well, it was meanwhile still Christmas, and somehow I was not by item. But today I want to show you some books that we have done lately, especially my husband has always found more pleasure in this hobby.
I have not shown any books for quite a while again. It's been Christmas and I just did not feel like posting. But today I'd like to show a few books we have made recently, especially my husband who is getting into this hobby a lot more by now.
The first books that I want to show are a few with unusual shapes, that my husband did. One is shaped like a diamond, and two like a star:
First books I'd like to show are some extraordinary ones shaped Which my husband has made, one like a rhombus and two star-shaped ones:
diamond-shaped.
Shaped like a rhombus.
This was the first attempt to bind a book shaped like a star. My husband has used a classic stitched binding with a linen-bound and as you can see from the photos below, this was not a good combination for this form.
This was the first try of a star-shaped book. My husband used a perfect binding and as you can see in the photos following this sort of binding is not too useful for this shape.
This was the second attempt, after I had suggested to try a Coptic binding. Works much better as you can see.
This was the second try after I had suggested to use a coptic stitch. Worked better much.
These are two more books that my husband has recently tied:
These are two more books my husband has made recently:
After my husband had been shaped like stars books, was an oddly shaped piece of left over cardboard, and I had the idea of this as a cover for a buttonhole attachment to . use I can make this book my husband, since for him the first time was that he has tried a buttonhole attachment. I think the result really great. :)
After making the star-shaped books a piece of strangely shaped cardboard had been left over and I had the idea to use this for a buttonhole stitch. I let my husband do this, because it was his first book with a buttonhole stitch. I really like the result. :)
My husband has tried even a leather-bound book, a kind of band Franz.
My husband also tried a leather bound book, similar to a perfect binding.
And last a book that I have recently made themselves. It is a mixed work, I have a "French linked stitch" used for binding, and the cover's a bit like one as a buttonhole attachment so you can see the attachment on the back:
And last but not least - a book that I have made recently. It's sort of mixed, I used a French linked stitch and the cover looks like one for a buttonhole binding So that it's possible to see the stitches at the spine:
