Members manji Posted March 23, 2011 Members Report Posted March 23, 2011 Would doing a single or double loop stitch around the edge of a binder cover stifffen it too much? I like that look, but I'm afraid the cover wont fold correctly over the spine. I'm sure someone has attempted this! Quote
bison Posted March 24, 2011 Report Posted March 24, 2011 I've not done it with any of mine, but I've seen folks who do a braided edge on their binders...check out Hidepounder's gallery. I usually do a saddlestitch 1/8 inch in from the edge when I'm lining my pieces. Good luck! Quote

I've done a dozen or so binders, albums, etc and they all were laced (double loop) Use good lace and tap it when you're done to flatten it. It won't bind at all. pete Quote
