It's a non-adhesive binding which can be done with or without supports, cased into a hardcover and hidden, or sewn onto paper covers and left exposed. We will be completing this binding using paper covers with pockets, and leaving the sewing exposed. Use it as a notebook or sketchbook, a gift, or a model for additional handmade books.
Instructor Erica Honson is studio coorindator for Common Press.
All supplies provided freely. No prior bookbinding experience necessary.
