I though i would start book folding Wednesday and here is another book folding tutorial! Book folding can be as easy or as hard as you want to make it. I usually try to make the tutorial easy to follow and with out many instructions. You can always use the patterns I have and rework them and make something new. I always begin with marking the pages. I know you might think that if you do that then you would see the markings once you fold your pages. However, let me a sure you that you wont even notice the marked pages. I will suggest you use a pencil when marking your book.

I went I ahead and ripped the cover because it would be very hard to fold it. I then folded the first fold the first ten pages using the first line and the last line.

 

 

The second fold was the second line from the top and the bottom.

The third fold is the third line from the top and the bottom.

Now you have three different folds.

You continue the folds until you reach the end of the book. You can always do more than 10 pages if you want it to look fuller. I used a paperback book which had 531 pages. It usually takes me about an hour to finish this book folding pattern. I can’t do it in one sitting since it can be very mind numbing at times. Hope you enjoy it.
