Coptic binding is something I’ve been wanting to try for ages and I found a really great tutorial. I love this one particularly as the pictures are so clear.

Binding them all together meant I could keep them all tidy in one place and also have a go at coptic binding. Winner.
I love the spine!
One of the advantages of this type of binding is that allows the pages to lay nice and flat:
