Thinking What We Are Doing #1: Sewing Books by Hand
by Emily K. Larned. Published by Impractical Labor

" A small book not on how to sew books, but rather about the observations, thoughts, and feelings that arise in the process of this patient and meditative labour.
The publication contains a reflective essay titled 'Our daily lives have to be a satisfaction in themselves' written while binding a large hand-sewn edition of the Alder & Frankia book. "

Illustrated with images from Mary Van Kleek’s Women in the Bookbinding Trade (1913) and supplemented by a QR code bibliography threaded throughout.
