In this bookbinding workshop, you'll learn the modern bookbinding process, from folding signatures (which are stacks of folded papers) to creating your own bookbinding cover cloth. You will sew your folded signatures into a text block, make a case with your cloth, and combine the text block and case. The workshop is ideal for beginners, yet also rewarding for those with some bookbinding experience. By the end of the class, you’ll have crafted a completed book.
Registration for this class closes on February 7.
