Longstitch Book

Thanks for the invite @Jacob Scowden !

This project was done in a bookbinding class. I used my friend's short story, from a collection called "Son" as the content. With the format of a longstitch book, the pages are folded into one another. I utilized this to create, essentially, an unreadable book. The pages are printed on transparent vellum paper, allowing the story to overlap itself. Each sewn signature is a different color, further emphasizing the book's structure. At the end of the book, the story is printed in full.
