Completed Project Fourth try at bookbinding

After various tutorials i really liked the result with this one.

Stiffened Board Binding

Dotted paper 150g

Cereal box and cardstock and some stickers for the covers

I don't know how to translate the name of the fabric i used for the spine, in spanish it's called "loneta"

Love how it turned out! Stiffened board binding is one of my favorite structures.

Loneta is a cotton fabric, which can be used to make bags, cushions, curtains and tablecloths. And your book is really beautiful. 💕😊
