I had to chuckle when you said to make sure the old back was applied right side up. That’s exactly what I was thinking. Beautiful repair. I have to repair my mothers bird book that is going to my grand daughter. Thankyou for this video. Now I know what to do.

What is the cloth you used and where can I buy it?

[@dianathiele1629]

I have a book where the front and back is three colors. Can I use three different kind of linen and glue them (onto or next to each other) together??

Where can you find book cloth? I find book cloth tape but no non-adhesive clothe

[@wisconsinwoodsman1987]

Amazon, of course ;-)

I can do this but this video set off my OCD big time.

This type of work is to make the book usable not to make it look brand new, so calm yourself and your OCD down.
