Create an open binding (coptic) style book that was first used in the 2nd century. The spine is open, so you can see the sewing and beauty of the pages. You'll use a hard cover and glue on paper to create a unique design. Using this technique, your book will lay flat when it's open. It also uses a series of signatures (folded sheets of paper) sewn together.
