@birdiesbindings.bsky.socialSomething fishy is going on...
If you're wondering what this is all about, then you need to make your way to the Cambridge Living History Fair on the 24th and 25th October to find out!
@relics-of-reveries.bsky.socialFrankenstein is, kind of, my current skill level indicator : I did it multiple times over the few past years, iterating over the design every time. I've very happy with the current version!

@birdiesbindings.bsky.socialMy 'office' at the weekend at @kentwellhall.bsky.social A very productive and lovely weekend.
Lots of pamphlets bound; 7 #medieval style notebooks; 2 mini medieval style notebooks; a simple mini vellum notebook; & miniature books for fun (& to use up scrap paper).
@byopiapress.bsky.socialAn old book for this month's book arts challenge —'Ancient'—on that other platform. Second image shows a version you can make for yourself. Instructions and downloadable print file:

@waterloggedowl.bsky.socialFor #bookbinding, our great sin is textblocks. Believe what you will, this is a greatly reduced pile for me. And my current deal with myself is I can't typeset another fic until one of the piles is gone. As I am on a long-fic binge, I am in a heaven/hell situation.
@blueblend.bsky.socialI can't control the world, but I CAN control this hair dye, this pair of scissors, this needle and thread.
On an unrelated note, I've been learning bookbinding.

@laureltreebooks.bsky.socialHandbound notebooks are now available in the shop! All made from scratch by me, with high quality materials using traditional bookbinding techniques and equipment. Very excited for this addition to our shop!
@byopiapress.bsky.socialTwo drumleaf sketchbooks with self-closing covers and an experiment (orange cover). The last will appear soon —in an improved version— on the Byopia Press blog with instructions. Instructions for the self closing cover:

@methylla.bsky.socialPaused #bookbinding for a hot minute to do a commissioned book design, but behold! Wizard of Oz is sewn and chilling in the press while the first layer of spine glue dries.
@michaelgniadek.bsky.socialSecond notebook done!

@svanimpe.bsky.socialI've seen rat and cat paw prints, this is the first time I see earthworms used to make patterns on a #bookbinding.
@waterloggedowl.bsky.socialI realized in the morning I forgot to add literally any tags to this post 🤦‍♂️
