Saltzworks: Bookbinding Part 3 - Sewing the Coptic Binding
http://saltzworks.blogspot.com/2010/03/bookbinding-part-3-sewing-coptic.html
Tuesday, March 30, 2010. Bookbinding Part 3 - Sewing the Coptic Binding. Stack book covers and text block, spine away from you, in the order they will be sewn. Top cover on the top. (I had to use my glue bottle to keep it from sliding out). Signatures (11) all lined up and arranged so that the punched spine holes line up together. Top right corners all lightly marked in pencil. Beads, 1" worth, on a strip of masking tape ready for you to put on your middle signature. Bring thread out on the right side.

Saltzworks: Wax Paper Applique
http://saltzworks.blogspot.com/2007/09/wax-paper-applique.html
Monday, September 03, 2007. As some of you know, I am taking a quilting class. It's a year long class, with meetings once a month. Each month we get a new set of fabrics and instructions. We do not get to see a finished quilt until the end, so it's going to be a surprise! Anyway, I am having so much fun that I am going to post some of the tips here, for everyone :). August was Wax Paper Applique. Wax butcher/freezer paper (wax on one side, paper on the other). Hot iron, mini craft irons are the best!
