Siddur progress

[rhu]

I finished stitching the text block while in NYC, and Monday night I glued mesh over the spine and added head bands. I also cut and glued the boards and cloth for the cover, but I'm unhappy with how that turned out --- the spine is about 1/8" too narrow --- so I'm going to save that cover for some other project and try again tonight. I still hope to have time to finish before this Shabbat. (If I am successful with tonight's cover, I can glue the text block in tomorrow night and I'll be fine.)
