Yesterday I made a medieval book.

it's all looking realy good. Is the book sewn into the spine of the cover or is it sepperate? it's hard to see in the pictures

[littlebus]

It is a "limp" book (ie. it has no stiffenings in it, just paper and fabric) but yes, the pages are sewn to the cover along the fold.

i've seen examples with small wooden toggles or beads tied into the book end of the strap to secure it. does the strap itself secure it enough?

[littlebus]

The strap can tie closed. It's just looped in the photo.

Looks good if only I had any reasons to make a book I would as I bought leather to make a book for a friend then the whole idea went off the boil...
