In Episode 112 ~ Covering Cloud Atlas ~ which can be seen below this episode, you can also see two small red notebooks. These are lined notebooks. One has words in the upper margins in both Japanese and English; one has the Tedorigawa Bookmakers name in the upper margin. The Word Notebook is 187 pages, the Tedorigawa Notebook is 157 pages. The Word Notebook has yellow endpapers while the Tedorigawa Notebook has blue endpapers. Both are A6 - pocketbook - sized.
Both notebooks were part of my August bookbinding learning experience. During this intensive, for me anyway, period of bookbinding, I made seven books and three boxes for books, but the real activity was to hone my skills in attaching endpapers (successfully) and to get into a rhythm of making books more frequently.
In fact, yesterday, there being a typhoon sweeping through the country and no real need to go outside, I spent the time and made two more books ~ more on those in a future episode. The main point being, I felt comfortable making books even though I had a limited amount of time. I also didn't make as many mistakes as in previous constructions. So, I can conclude, my August Bookbinding Learning Experience™ was a success. At least for me.
