I didn't know this Coptic Binding would work

A Coptic binding for our fall colors challenge, with a new way to glue the cover and an old plate that waited 20 years for this book. Join the monthly challenge inside the Agassi Bookbinding Community: https://idoagassi.com/community A new challenge starts on the 1st of every month, each with a new theme. Seeing everyone's books is the best part of my month. This Coptic Binding was made from watercolor scrap paper, two thick boards, and a lot of patience. In this video, I'll show you the process of folding, sewing the Coptic Binding and connecting the cover. You'll also see the bump I wasn't sure about, and how I fixed it. The plate I use on the cover is from a project about 20 years ago, and it goes onto the brick book cloth with gold foil, right before I finish the sewing.
