#Coptic stitch

[newtsnotebook]

I decided on a whim a couple of days ago that I needed to get into bookbinding - so here's my first try at a coptic bound notebook made with things I had lying around the house

Fic Binding: leverage by @columbinepurples​ (Daredevil, Matt/Foggy, M, 1.7k.)

First attempt at a Braille book! More of the process is documented here. I transcribed it into Braille on PerkyDuck, and embossed it with an embosser I found on eBay.

Coptic Stitch Olive Oil Book

I bought a liter can of extra virgin olive oil cold pressed from ancient olive trees in Jenin, Palestine, sold by @handmadepalestine.

After it was delivered to me, I decided to upcycle the packaging the oil came in by turning parts of the box into a little coptic stitch notebook. The pages are from paper scraps that a friend gave me. It’s nothing gorgeous, but I’m quite pleased with it.

#freepalestine🇵🇸 - please consider donating to the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund.

I made a Swiss-Coptic bound notebook from scratch tonight!

Here's a little project that I made to keep myself busy for a little while.

It's The Tale of Two Bad Mice, by Beatrix Potter (text and illustrations) - a delicious children's classic.

My favourite part was definitely embroidering the spine because it made me fall in love with embroidery all over again. I need to do this more often!

Overall, it's far from being perfect (I even forgot the headbands 🤦🏻‍♀️), but i think I still really love it.

Got to try something I've wanted to learn for ages today. Bookbinding!

I'm having a bit of trouble with tension, but it looks very nice from the outside so 🤷

I finished my very first Coptic stitch today!

The outside cover is Yuzen Chiyogami, the signatures are watercolor paper, and the thread is a pale blue, cotton embroidery floss.

This is a coptic notebook I bind for my daughter. I made it from the pretty box of soaps she gave me for Christmas. I want it to have a rustic vibe, so I let the cardboards edges in sight and I choose a recycled sugarcane paper.

It's been a while since I've done the coptic sticht, and I made a few mistakes.

All in all, I'm pleased with it. My daughter liked it, and that makes me happy.

Finally finished binding my newest sketchbook 🪲

My first time actually recording myself sewing. I’m pretty new to making reels on IG, so it’s pretty simple overall.

This is a simple Coptic stitch journal for a friend. I really like the watercolor leaf patterns of the paper I used for the covers. Feels right for the season as well.

There were several moments where I had to undo my stitching because I got carried away with the rhythm.
