Learn the basics and fall in love with bookbinding! This workshop will introduce students to tools and processes of bookbinding such as folding and sewing paper + covers to create a blank sketchbook. Specifically, students will learn the Secret Belgian binding. This is unique in that it lays flat when opened (great for drawing and writing), has hard covers, and enables a visible intricate stitching on the exterior.
All other materials are provided and all experiences welcomed – must be 18+
