One Sheet Books

Cathy Reeve

Come have fun making books from only a single sheet of paper! No sewing or gluing is needed, just paper, folding, and a couple of cuts with scissors. Although we will work with blank paper, this is a great way to recycle maps, marbled paper, drawings or prints. They can also be easily adapted to use as zines. We’ll start by making an 8 page mini book, then continue on other structures – a dos a dos book, a pocket book and a blizzard book. If time permits, we will also explore one page triangular fold books and units that can be glued together. No bookbinding experience is required, and all materials will be provided. This one-day workshop will take place in a studio accessed by a flight of stairs.
