Welcome Back
Since this months The Virtual Crafting Challenge features the Letter B, it seemed a good time to gather my bookbinding tutorials together for you. If you are new to bookbinding you will find this series a great place to get started.
This film shows you how to wax your thread and the reasons for doing so.
If you have enjoyed this film or have any questions, do leave me a comment 
Best wishes and thanks for reading, see you soon
Billie

Loved the film on waxing thread! I have a difficult time finding waxed thread in different colors and this info has solved that problem. Thanks!
Hi Charlotte
I was having the same problem! When I could find coloured linen thread, it was way more expensive than the natural coloured one.
This way I can match the thread to colour of my project, and just make enough for that one project
Thanks for your comment
Best wishes

Nice video Billie! A friend asked to wax thread and I did a google search and found you. Nice bonus about your suggestion of coloring thread. I hadn’t thought to do that! Thanks.

Hi Leah
Glad you found it useful. I found book binding a lot like cooking, all the books on the subject expected you to know the basics, but no one explained how to do the starting steps. Colouring thread in this way, came from not being able to source reasonably priced coloured thread locally to me.
Enjoy your binding, best wishes
Billie
