BINDING
You basically have three options here...
Option A: Handsewing
1. Make a Jig with one half of an 8 1/2 x 11 paper
2. mark 8 lines one inch apart at 3/4 inch from the left
3. use the jig to poke 8 holes
4. thread your needle with heavy linen thread and knot one end
5. sew across binding
6. when all the way through, knot the thread
Option B: Sewing Machine
1. Sew along the fold approx 1/4in. from the spine (we used a zig-zag stitch)
Option C: Staple
We recommend sewing
