Bookbinding Workshop - make a hardcover new year journal

One of my favourite things about a new year is a new journal, and what's better than making your own?

Led by a professional bookbinder, you’ll learn the skill of bookbinding, making a handbound journal to take home with you. (If you'd like to gift this workshop, I can post out a gift voucher free of charge - just leave me a message when ordering)

You’ll learn:

Preparing pages for sewing

How to select papers and materials

Sewing and lining your book block using traditional sewing methods

Making hardcover books with bookcloth and hand marbled papers

Personalising with a gold or silver foil title

’Casing in’ your books and attaching the book and cover together

There will be an abundance of high quality materials to choose from, and because we’re gathering in my studio you’ll have access to the full range of equipment, materials and tools.
