Re: [BKARTS] Mulling it over

[Edward Stansell <CraftBook@xxxxxxx>]

Gavin,

By "threading, do you mean "sewing?"  If you are speaking sewing then I think
you are having troubles with your kettle stitches showing. You may either
flatten them with a backing hammer or like many 19th century bookbinders saw a
kerf in the back of the text-block to accommodate the kettle stitches.
