A handmade book is something very special, whether as a gift or for your own notes, sketches, memories, collages or collections. The folding books, bag books or single-sheet books that are created from the instructions shown here are simple and at the same time unique. Even the basic bookbinding techniques offer a wide variety of design options that can be easily mastered without prior knowledge or mechanical equipment. And what would a book be without an interesting cover? Tin cans, fruit bags, envelopes, boxes or envelopes with collection pockets are just a few examples of unusual book covers. Free from the compulsion to be perfect, this book is an invitation to deal with the "wonderful containers of messages" called books in a lively, humorous and fearless manner. As bonus material for this book, there is a project on the subject of “Fast books for single sheets” that can be downloaded free of charge from www.haupt.ch/unikat .
