Book Making 11th Oct


Today we MADE A BOOK! which was not as boring as i thought it would be!





The book was done very easily, firstly we needed a cover which we were given then we needed 10 peices of A1 cartligue paper which we bought for £2 so the book cost me £2 to make when i could buy it for around £20 in a shop. dammn.

Firstly we needed to cut all the paper into A3 peices, then we had to start sowing them all together... which was quite long and tiering but so worth it for the final peice. Then we had to make a binding which was just layers of glue and faberic, then we could cut down the book if we wanted i didnt do this because i liked the raged edges. 

Then we had to make a carboard back for it which was just methering the trick with making a book was just patiences.. time... and boredom! then we stuck the fabric to the cardbored used special glue to the book and had to press it for 2mins then when we got home had to leave it to dry and press for another 6 hours. then poofff its finished :)
