Single needle chain stitch binding

Shelly has published one of the most detailed and complete tutorials that I’ve ever seen on chain stitch binding.  I’m not sure if this would be considered a Coptic binding style or not (I think it is), but Shelly has photographed and stepped through each stage so clearly that I’m totally convinced that I can do this!

While you’re there, you also need to visit Shelly’s gallery, where you will spend some happy time drooling over her collages, altered books, doodles, and artist trading cards.  This is a mixed media artist with wide and varied skills!
