Workshop - Coptic Stitch Bookbinding

Instructor: Rachel Stickney

The Coptic-bound book dates back almost 2,000 years, originating in Egypt and used by the Copts. This binding style uses a chain-link stitch along an exposed spine, creating an ideal book for journaling or sketching as the pages lay completely flat when opened. For your cover, choose from KBAC’s selection of decorative paper, or bring along your own to further personalize your book
