Open Spine Ribbon Booklet


I saw something on-line and was intrigued... I should have written the link name because I couldn't find it again to see if I did it the same way... c'est la vie. (Ali Manning - (https://www.handmadebookclub.com/)
Size closed: 6"w x 7"h x 1"thk
I cut some Columbia Mills LBS End Paper to 11.5 x 7" and folded in half. each signature has 8 of these folded pages and there are 6 signatures.
I pierced 12 holes either 1/2" apart or 3/4" apart depending on the size of ribbon I was using.
Each signature had the ribbons going thru the binding as I was binding the booklet. A little awkward but Love the results.
Added brass corner protectors.
Ah I found her name… Ali Manning (vintagepagedesigns.com) - July 16/24 post. And mine is differently made than hers… so I guess I’ll need to make another one. BIG GRIN
