Sewing in Case Binding in the Printing Industry — In bookmaking, the term “case binding” often conjures images of stately hardcover books, their spines lined up on library shelves, exuding a sense of permanence and tradition. But what many may not realize is the intricate process of sewing that lies at the heart of this bookbinding method—a process that not only holds the pages together but also connects us to a centuries-old craft.
Binding in sewing refers to a strip of fabric that is used to encase the raw edges of a garment or other fabric item, giving it a neat and finished appearance. Binding is often used to finish edges of quilted items, such as blankets, placemats, or table runners. #binding
