How to Coptic Stitch - Step by Step Bookbinding Tutorial (Kettle stitch & easy back cover!)

Start to finish bookbinding tutorial for beginner's on how to sew a Basic Coptic Stitch binding. A kettle stitch is used for the changeover between signatures to lock the signatures in place. When it comes to attaching the rear cover, you will learn a non-traditional and zero stress way that will hopefully help you to enjoy the process even more. ***The same method used to prepare the covers and pages for this basic coptic binding may be used for many other hand sewn books! Yay! This tutorial is dedicated to my family, my fantastic CHS art students, and my fellow artists who have inspired, taught, and pushed me to keep creating. Thank you all! I am a self-taught bookbinder and high school art teacher so tutorial is broken down how I teach bookbinding to my students. It moves slow so feel free to skip ahead and jump between chapters. Please experiment with other ways of sewing this binding! It's fun to add your own unique twist. Measurements for this binding may also be adjusted to the size of the book you want to make. All supplies may be recycled, found, or purchased in craft stores or online. Supply list: Material for book covers - I am using canvas boards, but bookboard, mat board, repurposed bookcovers, and any strong upcycled materials that you can cut down and punch holes in may be used. Paper for book pages - I am using drawing paper, but any paper is fine Ruler to measure and tear down paper Pencil Scrap paper for notes Cutting mat - not required, but very helpful! Material to poke holes on - scrap cardboard works great! Bone folder - not required, but helpful Curved needle (easier to use than a straight needle) Awl or any pointed tool to poke holes Strong thread (I am using polyester bookbinding thread) Beeswax Bean bag or other smooth weight (optional) ***Patience :) Chapters: Supplies 00:01 Book orientation & page measurements 02:23 Paper grain 04:20 Tear Down Paper for pages 05:14 (also how to use a cutting mat) Fixing mis-torn pages 07:39 Dividing Pages into signatures 08:12 Folding Signatures 08:48 Pressing Pages 09:49 Creating a Template 10:21 - YOU MAY CHANGE HOLE PLACEMENT if you like or according to book size Preparing Covers & punching holes 12:15 Preparing Signatures & punching holes 15:54 Measuring Thread 22:35 Waxing Thread 23:26 Picking a Needle 24:32 Sewing the First Cover & 1st Signature 25:44 How to Tighten Thread After Sewing First Cover 32:36 2nd Signature 32:49 *Kettle Stitch is explained every time it is used - 35:09 , 38:28 , 40:26 , 42:11 , 43:48 3rd Signature 36:30 4th Signature 39:07 5th Signature & sewing on the table 41:03 Sewing the Last Signature 42:42 Sewing Second Cover 44:19 Tying Off the Knot 48:41 Easy Bookmark 49:15 Done! :) Suggested books to try next: FOR THIS BOOK! - Add a Decorative Woven Spine to your Coptic Stitch Books!    • DIY Decorative Woven Spine for Coptic Stit...   How to Double Needle Coptic Stitch - With Kettle Stitch! / Bookbinding Tutorial    • How to Double Needle Coptic Stitch with Ke...   Ladder & Crossed Ladder Combo:    • How to Sew a Ladder Stitch & Crossed Ladde...   Single Page Coptic Binding:    • How to Single Page Coptic Stitch - Bookbin...   How to sew Coptic headbands: Coptic Headbands - Step By Step Tutorial (Real Time, No Music)    • Coptic Headband / Endband - Step By Step T...   Longer tutorial on how to tear down paper with a ruler:    • DIY Paper cutter - How to, Tips, Real Time 😄   Longer tutorial on how to wax your own thread:    • How to Wax Thread - Step by Step🧵 🪡   — Hi, I'm Christine Guenard.
