"Sometimes a unique situation arises where you must do a
book just for yourself. In a workshop I had to do two
miniature bindings &endash; resewn, leather bindings, false
bands, onlays on front, and clamshell boxes &endash;all the
instructor's way. The pressure was on. This project was one
of the results. The resultant "feel good" feeling made that
pressure worthwhile."
