So this is the long stitch binding, which basically means that you sew the book sections (pieces of folded paper nestled in fours or fives) into the case.  And by sew, I mean literally take a needle and thread and sew!  Before making books, I had no idea that people still did that.  This book is 12 sections -- so 48 pages.  And as you can see, I kind of wanted to have fun with the inside, so I used some paper that I made last spring.
