Style: LONG and FRENCH/LADDER BINDING
Fact: Longstitch binding is a glue-free technique where book sections are sewn directly through slotted covers, creating a visible pattern of staggered lines along the spine. Often combined with Coptic-style sewing (Ladder stitch), it was widely used in medieval parchment bindings (c. 1375–1500) for added spine strength. The method invites variation, from crossed stitches (French) to changing stitch lengths and using multiple thread colours, making each binding both structural and expressive.
