Learn how to do coptic stitch for bookbinding and learn how this stitch is similar to chain stitch in embroidery. Here's how to do coptic stitch.

This binding style is perfect for creating photo albums, guest books, sketchbooks, journals and notebooks. The Coptic stitch method has been used since as early at the second century A.D. by the Copts, early Christians in Ancient Egypt. With this method, a book’s covers and text block are hand-sewn together leaving the spine of the book exposed. The visible Coptic stitch resembles chain stitching –a stitching method used in embroidery– and has also become known as the chain stitch.

Long stitch binding is a popular bookbinding method in which a text block gets hand-sewn to a piece of leather using a singular thread line. This sewing method creates visible long and chain stitch patterns on the spine. It is estimated that this type of binding originated in Germany during the 13th century BC. #diyandcrafts #art #design #education #entertainment #booklover #bookcarft #papercarft #handicarft #bookbidng #bookbindingtutorail #arttutorial #digitalart
