In this hands-on class, you’ll learn the fundamental techniques of traditional bookbinding, making both a casebound and a coptic book. The final books are perfect for sketchbooks, mood trackers, travel logs, stamp art, gratitude journals, diaries, or whatever else you can think of.
First, you’ll familiarize yourself with folding signatures and sewing a text block (the pages). With the coptic stitch, you’ll learn a visible continuous chain stitch that links across the exposed spine of the book. With the casebound book, you’ll make a case (the hardcover) from bookboard, book cloth, and decorative paper. And then you'll learn to "case in" the text block (create the book itself).
This class is ideal for folks with some experience in bookmaking or hand-sewing and those interested in the art of handmade books. All materials are provided, and students will leave with two completed hardcover books.
