OVERVIEW:
In this workshop you will explore how folding, stitching and simple construction methods can be combined to create functional, beautiful hand-bound books. The pace is lively and hands-on, with demonstrations followed by immediate making so you can learn through doing. This session is designed to feel productive and energising, giving you a solid foundation to continue exploring at home or to progress to the 6-week Improvers Course.
This workshop is ideal for confident crafters, fast learners, and people who enjoy intensive sessions. If you prefer a slower, more supported learning environment with time to revisit techniques, you may like to consider the 3-Week Intro Course.
