Step 4 Stitching in the Booklets into the Cover

9. Now take another clip and re-clip your booklets, but only on one side. Don't remove the original clip until you have this second clip on. This will hold all the papers in line with the holes you already made. This is also important to do, because it makes it easier to stitch it into the cover.

10. Start stitching by lining up the first three holes of the cover with the three holes of your first booklet. (Bear in mind that I had already stitched in 4 booklets before I got good pictures of the stitching process. The pictures you see are of the last booklet being stitched in.)

-Cut a long peice of thread, about 1.5 feet and thread your needle. Don't make any knots.
-Put needle through the middle hole on the outside of the cover and through to the inside of the booklet.


11. Leave a little tail of thread, about 4"-6" long hanging out the spine. This is very important so don't make it too short.

Thanks for the post... Very cool indeed. I thought you might be interested to know that what you call a "booklet" is technically called a "signature." It's the little folded sections of paper inside of a thread-bound book.
