In the last several years I have been working on this type of book. It is a hard cover book, covers made from 2 mm binders board and covered with handmade paper, usually custom made. It can be used as a photo album or as a writing journal.
The body is factory made cardstock but we use only the best Italian papers, FSC certified, non chlorine bleach, with cotton pulp and/or recycled content. We specifically select types that have light relief in the surface, so that the factory paper compliments the handmade paper.
The cover and the body are stitched by hand with a technique called Coptic binding. I use a thin color cotton rope, usually selected by the customer. I have also used waxed help and jute thread when a natural look kids needed.
This type of binding allows the book to lay full open and flat on the table. I really like that result!

Nice.
I'm also publishing some images of my bookbinding work. Maybe you can check them.
Thanks.
