Learn basic book arts structures and stitches in this beginner workshop. We will introduce the most popular techniques and materials while exploring endless possibilities. After covering types of paper, folding methods and the tools needed, we will construct a variety of book styles. Students can work at their own pace choosing from: pamphlet stitch, flutter book, stab binding, perfect binding, mini leather journals and more. Participants will leave with a collection of books along with the skills to be able to continue book arts at home.
