Make a one-of-a-kind journal or sketchbook using an eclectic variety of papers, maps, found images, fabrics, and reclaimed book covers! The books we make in this class will be unique works of art in their own right as well as spaces to draw, write, paint, and imagine. Inspired by the ancient Coptic bookbinding method, the single-needle link stitch we'll practice is elegant and deceptively simple - the flexible binding allows the book to open flat, and the exposed looping stitches create a beautiful braid-like effect. No prior bookbinding experience is required, though a basic understanding of hand-sewing would be helpful. If you would like to include any special paper, images, or other materials in your book, please bring them to class with you!

Supplies: $25 supply fee payable to Teaching Artist on the day of the workshop.
