Accordion Book with Signatures

I mentioned earlier in the year how much I like accordion books. They’re simple but so versatile and appealing. For book number 32 in my 50 Book Project I decided to make an accordion with signatures.

I used a botanical paper (Small Leaf) for the two covers, watercolor paper for the accordion and a sage green handmade paper for the signatures.

I attached the signatures using a simple 5-hole pamphlet stitch and waxed linen thread.

And finished it with a belly band in the same sage paper and a piece of torn muslin.
