Talked to a guy who hand-sews all his bindings. Made me feel like a hack.

He said machine stitching is for efficiency, not strength. Said his 40-year-old notebooks still lay flat. Has anyone here switched to hand-sewing and actually stuck with it?

My grandma hand-stitched all her quilts and they lasted decades. But she also cursed like a sailor the whole time she did it.

Man, my buddy tried hand-sewing for like a month but went back when he realized it takes forever.
