Comfort crafting for homebodies ⟡ multi-needle Coptic stitch

[@jfredmuggs3586]

I really enjoy your "quiet" videos - just the sound of the tools and your hands working the materials. Your book is truly amazing - the work, blood, sweat, and tears of producing it were well worth the effort. Scratch Lucy behind the ears for me - a great guard dog!

that machine you have that put the drawing in there is out of this world!!! ive never seen anything like that

[@carolinelawrie7142]

Very interesting technique and the results are wonderful ❤ love the themes too. I don't enjoy doing Coptic stitch myself but it seems that this multi-needle technique allows greater control over stitch tension, hence the perfect finish 😊

Thank you so much for sharing these vids ! I was really looking for a lay-flat notebook, and I made it thanks to you ! Only had 1 needle for 6 holes, but it went quite well. It's obviously far from being as perfect as yours, a tad too lose, but I'm very very happy with it.

[@JoJo-xz6fw]

This is fascinating, I had no idea this craftwork existed. ❤

[@birdiexoxo]

This is so exciting! Ive been following you since your second studio vlog and I’m thrilled to see you are getting to bind some copies of your own book! Congrats!!

[@gay_milhouse1160]

i’ve been doing coptic style binding for 4 months and still love the process every time i sit down to make a book. next month i’m gonna do sewn board binding from your book and i’m so so excited! it’ll be great to have a “hardback” option without diving deeply into case binding just yet!

[@bittermelonbindery]

That's awesome!! Enjoy 💕

[@jeannettesalazar6442]

Happy new year.🎉 thanks to share your beautiful work, i❤ it.😊

[@deborahbarlow4309]

Is that a foam brush?! 😮 I never would have thought of that! Way better than a paintbrush.

[@lindahigham5317]

I love using a foam brush it's so much easier than a regular paint brush

[@bittermelonbindery]

I like the application of foam but bristle brushes last longer. So I'll use foam on more delicate projects or if I want to prevent any glue pooling.

I hope I can do work as beautiful as this one day. Still learning

[@gabrielwhitt5199]

I have been trying to book-bind for a while and you have given me the inspiration I needed.🐶

[@mycrazycartoonz]

Perfection! Thank you for sharing your beautiful videos 🌺🌠

[@andreatthatsme]

Thank you.😊

[@bayabusiness1654]

Hey chanel , i learned from your videos bookbinding and now i have my small business of notebooks and sketchbooks and i sell courses of book binding ! ❤️

[@lindahigham5317]

Hello 🤗 I love your books and I did 2 needle binding just once I did enjoy it also Wishing you a Happy Wonderful Merry New Year 🎊🕛🎉🌹☺️💌🖌️🎨📚🦄🤗❣️❣️

[@Sarahwritesletters]

So beautiful! Have not seen 4 needle Coptic technique before - do you prefer this method? What are the pros and cons compared to using one needle? Would love to hear your thoguhts

[@bittermelonbindery]

Check out Stone Burner Books' for a discussion on this! Personally I think the multi-needle is sturdier but the single-needle allows for more design and customization.

[@CristinaLaiASMR]

I love this so much

[@heuristiclearning]

Aesthetics....just amazing🎉

[@flowing_through_life]

Gorgeous as always. ❤

[@MariaTeresa-vb2ki]

Feliz Ano Novo. Seu trabalho é belíssimo. Muito obrigada.

[@ChantelleArts]

so cute, i love it 😊

[@user-muse_69]

Amazing ❤

[@DarkSketchbooks]

Gorgeous work 👏 Very subtle designs too. How would you make a baby's board book?

[@bittermelonbindery]

I haven't tried that but I think Coptic stitch would be my first consideration if you can figure out how to create the signatures out of boards.

[@DarkSketchbooks]

​@@bittermelonbindery ah thank you Chanel ☺️ a second question, but is Mod Podge Matte a good adhesive for starting out? I've used regular PH neutral PVA on the few I've previously done, but have a load of Mod Podge from other crafts 🤔

[@bittermelonbindery]

Sorry just saw this! Mod podge is acid-free I believe so you can use it, I just don't know the strength of the glue. Wouldn't hurt to try!

[@beverlybowman813]

Lovely, your work is very pristine and elegant. I’m curious about the height of your workbench. Could you share that information. Thanks

[@bittermelonbindery]

It's a flexispot standing desk, the height is adjustable

[@Layevskat]

Hi!! I would like to know if u could make a video teaching how to make a flexible notebook (soft cover) like Hobonichi, Stalogy, Zequenz, Midori and Takasago. Please 🙏🏻

[@madelyntruong5380]

Hey just wondering where you bought that beautiful chiyogami paper? I wanna use some in my next project, but I don't know where to buy it from.

[@ayakalander7707]

[@bittermelonbindery]

[@jcline147]

Where can I purchase your finished products in the USA?

[@sahar_12]

Hello, can you please tell me the composition of the thread?

[@aisyahfauziah6129]
