Introduction to a great bookbinding technique
In this wonderful afternoon of bookbinding, you will be introduced to the art of Japanese stab binding. This is a versatile technique that works perfectly for single pages and is therefore great for artists books, albums and journals.
During the class, you will learn how to prepare hard covers using gorgeous decorative paper and book cloth, before stitching a classic Japanese pattern from a selection of coloured thread.
At the end of the afternoon, you'll leave with a beautiful handmade book and the skills to make more!
The workshop is suitable for both beginners and also people with a little prior knowledge of book binding.
All materials and use of tools are included, together with lots of tea, coffee and homemade cake.
Please see booking link for ticket prices.
