Curious about bookbinding but not sure where to start? This is the class for you! During this hands-on workshop, participants will create a series of 3 different soft-cover book structures that can be easily recreated at home. This class will show how to properly cut, fold, and sew a book as well as what tools and materials to use. All supplies will be provided, and beginners are welcome.
