Most of the time I spent practicing Coptic stitch (just because I kept messing up - lesson learned: don't try to watch tennis at the same time). For the cover pages I used different materials and techniques:
1. Soldering
2. Etching
3. Painting:
Some books are bigger...
...some smaller...

Svetlana, these are so exciting!
I love all of them and feel quite inspired by what you've done here. I've never seen the ravens foot binding, really sweet!
The eyelets really complete them for a quality finished look.
Now I have to go back and gawk some more!

such beautiful work!! binding and design! i've tried coptic stitch but my signatures don't seem very sturdy. becos the spine basically relies on just the horizontal stitches ... the signatures and covers seem to slide up and down a little. do your coptic stitched books do that? slide?
ooo Svetlana these works of art are marvelous!!! so beautiful indeed......I just kept looking at them,,,amazing!
Wow!!! I love them!!! Beautiful art Svetlana. xx
Fabulous work Svetlana! Just love them all, well done!
