Advantages

    In this method, there is the handmade feeling not to be able to show in the joining materials such as the adhesive.

  2. Redo is possible.

    Unlike the way to use the glue, we will be able to redo it easy by taking out sewn stitches when we take a miss by this way.

  3. Finished work is steadier.

    Finished work is steadier than other ways. It seems to be impossible that joints come off even if treated slightly violently.

Disadvantages

  1. It takes a lot of time.

    This way takes a time terribly than the joining materials such as glue. It induces sleep.

  2. A miss makes a hole of needle.

    A hole is left when it will be pricked the wrong place with a needle.

  3. Thickness of the paper includes a limit.

    When paper is thin, it is easy to be torn. On the contrary, it is hard to prick with a needle when paper is thicker.
