Summer drags on & the bindery is closed. Here are a few bindings by Paul Bonet. 

Here is another piece that I find pretty amazing

This is a book made by Jim Croft. This type of book of was popular between 1300 and 1600 in europe. What makes Jim Crofts so special is he makes every part of the book from raw materials by himself, using mostly simple hand tools that he makes himself. Every part, from the paper to the thread, which he makes from cotton, hemp, and flax that he grows. Its a pretty amazing feat requiring a vast set of skills a wide knowledge of materials and production methods. 

This is a pretty amazing work. Learn more at www.saintjohnsbible.org/
