My fifth graders are making books in craft and tech class. I showed them how to make signatures then said "make at least 4, but you can make as many as you want." Sewing each one takes some time and concentration and I didn't see any reason to limit the numbers.
One kid made 23. She is making this huge tome. It's a dictionary. I somehow didn't notice how many she'd made until we got to the next step.
I think I need to bring some banding to give her spine more structure. It's so huge.

They are repeatedly embroidering their signed names on a book somehow? I've never heard of this, how does it work?

Signatures are the name for the sections of a book in this context.
