Eye Candy Journals
Date: Saturday, July 9, 9-4:00 pm
Do you love the smell of leather? Then this workshop’s for you! In this workshop, you’ll learn 5 bindings that use only leather, paper, and thread – no glue needed! For each binding, you will sew 3 sections of folded papers into covers cut from one piece of leather. These bindings are very flexible and allow the books to open completely flat, making them perfect for use as sketchbooks or journals.
Each sewing technique creates a different decorative sewing pattern on the spine and we will try out different closure methods. No previous experience is required – this is a great class for a beginner. You can even bring in your own leather to customize your book.
Note: There will be a scheduled lunch break.
