I just finished a book with kettle stitch binding (cause it's the only one I've learnt, lol), but your videos inspire me to try and make more and more notebooks :) It's so nice to watch it and listen to your calming voice. Good job ;)
Thank you for this 🙌🏻 Finally a video that I can follow. So many people are terrible at explaining what they're doing and don't go slow enough for you to see exactly what they're doing.
I've been following your bookbinding tutorials since high school and i'm currently a college student, i still go to sea lemon whenever i forgot how to do Coptic stitch 😄 i want to try this one tho
Your videos show each step very clearly and I enjoy listening to you describe it as you do it. I made my first coptic bound book last week, and have since made 2 coptic bound books with the two color threads, which I love. Thank you so much.
Absolutely love all your binding videos! I'm starting a lot of book binding projects this year, including making and binding my own art book, and I couldn't do it without your videos and tutorials. Thank you for being amazing and helping all of us creatives! :)
Thank u so much!!!! I have binded one of my torn book following your tutorial. And I am so happy to do it successfully!!!! I am very excited to bind more books following this video!!! May God bless u with good health and mind.
Your books are so beautiful! Please make a tutorial about creating seamless patterns from drawings, I want to try making custom wrapping paper 🥰 Thank you!!
Dear Sea Lemon, thank you very much for your efforts ! All your tutorials are a paragon of clarity and very easy to understand. i like your style very much and your demonstration are esxcellent. Cheers.
Your videos are amazing and your voice is so soothing🌸 Your instructions are clear and really helpful, thank you sooo much for these videos❤ I just made my first handmade watercolor sketchbook by watching your vid on kettle stitching and I love it so much
I made my first Coptic stitched book yesterday and after watching this I think can see where I went wrong,my stitches are too tight - thank you for posting this.
I like this stitch! Thanks for demonstrating how to do it. I love that paper you used to cover the books! So pretty!! I just ordered some, and since I so very much look forward to your videos, I joined Patreon to support your work! 😄
Could you show how to girdle bind a book? Maybe a form of it… I would love a cover that keeps the notebook safe and that can also be used for carrying the notebook. Thank you for your wonderful videos! All I've learned about book binding, I've learned from you.
Oh I love this !! I love doing regular Coptic but haven't tried this !! It's the weekend... guess what I'll be doing?! Lol !! Thank you for a great tutorial!
Hi Jennifer, and thank you. I had occasion to look up one of your earliest Coptic stitch videos the other day - my goodness, the video quality and editing have come a long way! Mind you, I do miss the jaunty reggae-ish background music. Anyway, I've been enjoying your channel for years now, and don't say thank you nearly often enough - so there you go. :-)
yes! I was planning to make a DIY inktober book video next month to prepare for October! I've never participated and this year I want to (in my own sketchbook of course) 👍
@@SeaLemonDIY That's so exciting!!! I'm glad we're on the same page with the Inktober book! I can't wait to see your video. I'm thinking about making signatures of different color and texture paper. Black paper so I can use white and metallic inks, kraft paper color for tone practice, watercolor paper for ink washes, etc. I'm also making the book about the size of your smallest book here, so I won't have an excuse to avoid doing it. I'm really looking forward to October! I'll set it up for 32 sheets so I can have a cover page. :D Thank you SO MUCH for this video! I'm so inspired to make my book AND, thanks to your previous videos on making your own design paper, I'm going to make my cover paper ahead of time using black cardstock and white ink. See you in the next video!
Hi, I would love a video where you show all binding options, where the books lay flat. Obviously, Coptic stitch works, but love to see several options, as I want my books to lay flat but might not want Coptic stitch... thanks.
I am new person I have subscribed your channel and tapped the bell icon can you make other new types of stitching plzz because I trust you so much than other youtubers this is canna from India
Excellent video - but that's not a square or reef knot! A square knot has both the threads on one side coming over the turn, and the treads on the other side going under the turn. What you have done is a granny knot :)
You could cover in tape? Either clear or washi to your choice. Also I found some metal covers from my local craft shop which slide on and then you pinch them tight. Hope this helps :)
Going from left to tight as we look at the folded edge of the signatures, let's call the needles/strands #1, #2, #3, #4. What would happen if at the end signature you took #2 and #3 (the two center needles) and looped them around end of the loops the opposite half. Meaning #2 would wrap around the hole and loops at #3. Then we would wrap #3 around the hole and loops at #2. That way #1 and #4 would still stay on their half of the book making three strands between #1 and #2 and three strands between #4 and #3. Leaving the two just made strands between #2 and #3. That way half of the ending double strands would be moved to the up-to-now none threaded center.
Hello! Thank you so much for this tutorial! I am planning on to make my own notebook diary for the whole year so I have enough pages.. I need a 110 sheet notebook(220 pages) , about the size of cahier... Which method would you recommend please to make that? And how many papers in one signature..? Thank you very much!!
What is the biggest advantage of this binding method or a reason for one to use this instead of regular coptic stitch? Apart from the choice of using different coloured threads.
Hi would it be possible to do a cross stitch binding or a flower Japanese binding, i've watched others do this but they're not as good as you at explaining the steps x
Can you use this stick with a more traditional cover made of fabric or leather? Specifically, a cover that goes over the spine. Does it still open flat?
Hello sea lemon😊 While binding my thread finished so knotted before starting a new signature . So is it possible to start again with a new thread ?? Thank you ☺️

Thank you for using 2 different thread colors - it makes it much easier to understand how the binding is done!
Thank you for this 🙌🏻 Finally a video that I can follow. So many people are terrible at explaining what they're doing and don't go slow enough for you to see exactly what they're doing.
Finally
I was trying to learn it
But was very difficult from anyone except you
I've been following your bookbinding tutorials since high school and i'm currently a college student, i still go to sea lemon whenever i forgot how to do Coptic stitch 😄 i want to try this one tho

Gonna try this! Been learning a lot from your tutorials this quarantine and they help me learn something I always wanted to make for myself.
The way you matched your thread colors to the wrapping paper 🥰
Your videos are more relaxing than asmr...... Love you!
The "I Need Some Space' motif totally needs to be a t-shirt or hoodie!!!
DEFINITELY TRYING THIS 💁🏽♀️

Absolutely love all your binding videos! I'm starting a lot of book binding projects this year, including making and binding my own art book, and I couldn't do it without your videos and tutorials. Thank you for being amazing and helping all of us creatives! :)

@@JoDidntHearYou its definitely going to be challenging but it'll be so worth it!
Ariana Silver you got this!!
Oh I love this I was just making small signatures for my new journal now I can watch and sew.... Yipppppeeeeee
Thanks for posting this tutorial. It’s easy to follow and makes this binding method feel a lot less intimidating.
Thank u so much!!!! I have binded one of my torn book following your tutorial. And I am so happy to do it successfully!!!! I am very excited to bind more books following this video!!! May God bless u with good health and mind.
This is so great! Thank you so very much. Just sitting here, smiling.
Your videos are perfect. I LOVE the the fact that you take the time to make the timestamps.. so helpful. Thank you
I JUST made a coptic sketchbook after years for a friend's birthday so this timing feels like a sign to keep going 🤪 love the tutorial!
Your vids are so good! Not only do you verbally communicate very well but the visuals are so clear. Thanks so very much!🐝🇨🇦✌️❤️🙏👍👏🎶💪😎
I have been following your book binding videos few years ago, and I had made a few books as Christmas gifts, thanks a lot
Your books are so beautiful! Please make a tutorial about creating seamless patterns from drawings, I want to try making custom wrapping paper 🥰 Thank you!!
The notebook looks very nice . My favorite is the cover of the notebook. Great vid sea lemon
Thanks so much for this video! It took me four tries to go along with the four needles but I finally got it! Love your tutorials!
Dear Sea Lemon, thank you very much for your efforts ! All your tutorials are a paragon of clarity and very easy to understand.
i like your style very much and your demonstration are esxcellent. Cheers.
I really love your videos! Its so relaxing! Also I made some of your books and all the process is entreteining and the results 10/10 👌✨

Sister,Iam from Manipur .
I really enjoy your video .
This is the method I learned in college. I’m excited to use it again! 💕 Thanks for this tutorial!!
Oh I'm so happy I just found my book binding kit.. You should see how I did my journal without my kit, no needles no nothing lol
Could you show how to girdle bind a book? Maybe a form of it… I would love a cover that keeps the notebook safe and that can also be used for carrying the notebook. Thank you for your wonderful videos! All I've learned about book binding, I've learned from you.
That's a very attractive stitch. Thank you for sharing.

I have made Coptic green cover bookbinding
Yay!!!! New video!!!

OMG thank you
Wonderful. In love.
Thank you!
Could you do a video on making a soft cover coptic stitch journal?
Nice thsnks
I'm not sure if this counts as binding, but making our own 3 ring binder photo album? I would love to see a tutorial from you!
Fantastic video, thank you? Is it linen thread you use?
soo nice
I was struggling to make new book and she posted new video...lucky me! I love your videos jennifer!! (Did i spell that right?)
Very nice binding work. And easy instructions. ❤️ Love that little boook. ❤️
Can you use Coptic stitch binding for single sheets? I don't want to fold my pages in half but I still like this stitch
Super cute! Does the additional thread create extra bulk inside the signatures? You are so great!
Excellent video - but that's not a square or reef knot! A square knot has both the threads on one side coming over the turn, and the treads on the other side going under the turn. What you have done is a granny knot :)
Hi! This tutorial was amazing, thanks! I have a question: how can I protect the corners on the cover when it's covered with paper?
You could cover in tape? Either clear or washi to your choice. Also I found some metal covers from my local craft shop which slide on and then you pinch them tight. Hope this helps :)
Tbh I usually just cover the entire thing with a plastic wrap that you usually use for books or notebooks
@@ChiB2004 Thank you so much! ❤️

Genial!! hace rato que quería aprenderlo y no encontraba dónde D: Gracias
Hello! Thank you so much for this tutorial! I am planning on to make my own notebook diary for the whole year so I have enough pages.. I need a 110 sheet notebook(220 pages) , about the size of cahier... Which method would you recommend please to make that? And how many papers in one signature..? Thank you very much!!
What is the biggest advantage of this binding method or a reason for one to use this instead of regular coptic stitch? Apart from the choice of using different coloured threads.
I just made a regular coptic stitch book with only 2 holes and that didnt go so well. Eager to retry it with this method though!
YAAAAASSSSSS
Hi would it be possible to do a cross stitch binding or a flower Japanese binding, i've watched others do this but they're not as good as you at explaining the steps x
Can you use this stick with a more traditional cover made of fabric or leather? Specifically, a cover that goes over the spine. Does it still open flat?
Hello sea lemon😊
While binding my thread finished so knotted before starting a new signature . So is it possible to start again with a new thread ??
Thank you ☺️
Can pages be added later?
