Step 13In this picture, all the individual book pages are now cleaned, mended, and organized into their original gatherings and ready to be sewn back together.
Step 14When this book was made in the 18th century, the pages were sewn together. The old, but now mended, sewing holes are used again.
Step 15Special linen thread is sewn through folds in the paper and looped around the cords to join the pages back together as a book. |
