Loop, Wrap, Bead: Variation for a Single Section Bindings

In person

Anita Gangi Balkun

Book Arts : All Levels

A bundle of folded sheets of paper, (also called the one section pamphlet), is the basic building block of bookbinding.

Learn the basics and then elevate your bindings with a flourish of three variations of stitches, originally designed by master binder Keith Smith.

Each row of stitches adds personality to the spine, and beads can be added as you master the sewing, taking the soft cover pamphlet to the next level! Change the look by varying the thread, the beads, and the type of paper.

This class will take place in a studio accessed by a flight of stairs. For any accommodations please send a confidential email to registrar@creativeartsworkshop.org
