This is a book for everyone whether you’re new to book binding or you’re experienced.  The Strap-Bound binding is fun to make while offering many possibilities for personal creativity.  You will learn some book-making fundamentals such as preparing a text block (the pages of your book), stitching the text block, designing the cover using a Japanese paste technique to add color and pattern and more.

Cost: $50 (includes material fees)

NOTE: This workshop is limited to 12 participants. Priority will be given to current Guild members.
