on the re-bound

no, it's not THAT.

I overstuffed my Ticket to Venice - Honeymoon in Australia travel journal.

So. I decided to re-bind it....take out the original binding thread, remove the existing spine, make a new wider one, then rebind it. 
Easier said than done.
Here's the final result though....

I started binding and discovered I would need to reinforce the spine so took that out and added a layer of manila folder material, then covered it with book cloth tape. Then re-punched the holes and started again.

then, as I was tightening the thread I broke it. :(

But, thanks to the fantabulous Mary Ann Moss, I know how to fix it.

you may be able to tell that last signature still needs some stuffin'. 

I'm diving back into it now.
