This looks saddle stitched to me with the outer covers made separately and then glued on. If I wanted something like that I'd use a cotton tape over the hinge.
Here's a short (easy) video of someone saddle-stitching
Is it really sewn in or just glued? There is a book making process which is similar to the system we used when I was at school to back our books with brown paper or wallpaper, but you put pieces of cardboard each side to make a stiff cover. It's shown here www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gv5KGIc_sSQ I think it's fairly clear that this could be adapted to use a leaflet instead of plain paper.
Thank you. I realise I wasn’t very clear, I’ve been finding it difficult to describe and so difficult to Google. Let me try again. The booklet appears to be sewn into a hardback cover. The cover varies from leaflet to leaflet and is hardback laminate appearance with what looks like acceptable looking tape around the spine A5 size.
I think Basire if you check out journaling on the You Tube you will see lots of fabric/paper hand made book crafts. The examples I've seen are gorgeously decorated with beautiful detailing - something to aspire to in the world of crafting for sure
I'm not quite sure what was made to hold your service leaflets . We have two available - one in normal print and on in large print . I must admit that a lot of page turning occurs and sometimes they get dropped onto the floor .
Why not have a Google ? It's always inspirational .
Visiting a church away from my area recently I noticed they had their service leaflets A5 paper inside a hard cover, it looked a craft job, and each had a different cover. It was rather like a folder, but somehow the leaflet was part of it, like a slim hardback book.
Anyone know how this is done? (It wasn't appropriate to ask at the time)
