Thinking What We Are Doing #1: Sewing Books by Hand

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 labor. A reflective essay written while binding a large hand-sewn edition of the Alder & Frankia book Our daily lives have to be a satisfaction in themselves. An earlier version of this essay was published on the CBAA Book Art Theory Blog.
