Join CSSC for a skill packed day of playful creativity with Cassandra Baron, learning her special contemporary and sustainable take on bookbinding with this fun and intriguing Accordion Matchbox Books workshop.

Make a series of playful accordion fold books in this workshop – this dynamic book structure incorporates collage, cut outs, stitched inserts, pockets and envelopes. Matchbox books are a great way to showcase remnant and hand printed papers in a personalised and sentimental keepsake. Collate papers you have gathered on your travels, create a memory or mindfulness book, or gather together your source materials and inspirations to create a themed Artist Book.

In the workshop we will create a mini accordion book and matchbox book case with the option to also work on a dinky A7 sized accordion fold book. 

You’ll leave this workshop with a fun collection of finished small books, and will receive follow up video instructions that you can refer to for a reminder of what is covered in class, and if you need a little time to finish at home. You will leave the workshop with a finished book as well as the skills and confidence to carry on bookbinding at home. And if you’re hooked on books (you will be) Cass will have kits available to purchase for £12 at the end of the workshop.
