Binding Peter Rabbit using the Sewn-Board Binding; Covering // Adventures in Bookbinding

In this two-part series I will bind The Tail of Peter Rabbit using the sewn-board binding structure. This robust structure, along with the heavy paper I use, make it a perfect book for little children.

The PDF I made for this video is available from my Patreon store for USD$6.
