Guess which bands I'm crossovering. 🤭

And here we are, a quick little sewn boards bind, just for this Big Bang I've joined.

Also, first time attempting more than one colour with my trusty hot foil quills. Not too bad, but precision won't be a thing. 🤪

Also, trimming with only ruler and cutter knife is prone to give you some very not straight edges. But at least they're smoother than non-trimmed.

Also, also, I really need to do some open spine binding with French Link at some point

A little mid-week reminder, that @fandomtrumpshate.bsky.social's Crafts Bazaar is still ongoing till Monday, March 10! :D

Well, well, well. Guess who's learned the hard way to think hard about signature length before printing three books...

Had access to a guillotine and chopped the signatures for binding one of my old stories in three parts.

Who needs bone folders if you've got dog? 😁

Also, I've found two spellings for the narrator. Everyone seems to be using Lyfrassir, and only on the band's bandcamp I've found Lifrassir. Decided to go with the Lyf spelling, but as we see… the cover had different ideas, which I only noticed after reaching the first or second s…

I've typeset and bound the Bifrost Incident by the Mechanisms. Courtesy of two fellow bookbinders I've got fancy corners and apple leather. And courtesy of Mum and her sewing machine, getting the leather and cloth together was easy (for me 🤭).

A little single signature bind for Herr von Ribbeck auf Ribbeck, complete with translation, I did for a meetup and book swap with other bookbinders. Did a little caterpillar stitch on the cover. :D

Happy FanFiction Writers Appreciation Day! 🎉
This is my contribution to the @renegadeguild LOVES FIC (WRITERS) 2024 event for today.

I’ve bound Bitch God by Naxtique . A delicious twisted tale about Zagreus and his encounters with the Satyrs.

Tried Ethiopian style binding today. Getting those holes punched and shoved between the two boards without ripping the cardboard proved to be quite tricky.
I like the kinda rustic vibe of the bind, though.
