In this introduction to traditional bookbinding, students will learn the basics of materials (book board, book cloth, adhesives, paper) and techniques (folding paper, cutting, sewing, and applying adhesives). By the end of the class, students will have completed a flat-back case-style binding covered in cloth and decorative paper. This class is for beginners and those who are experienced yet want to improve on their skills.
