Bookbinding: Kettle Stitch Text Block

Furthering our lessons in bookbinding, we're moving on to create a multiple signature text block, with the Kettle Stitch method. Virtual will need at least four signatures (I have four pieces of drawing paper in each signature), a push pin or and awl to punch holes, a hand-sewing needle (I am using a tapestry needle) and thread. For larger, thread, don't double up. Apologies for the hands-- can you tell Ive been tie-dying with students all week!! This video was creating for a Bookbinding Unit in the Haines Secondary Art Classroom, both in person and virtual. #bookbindingforstudents #virtualart #kettlestitch
