Learn to make your own notebooks using simple glueing and stitching techniques on our Introduction to Bookbinding evening course.

This course will run over three sessions on Wednesdays 29th January, 5th February & 12th February 18:00-20:30.

You’ll learn how to make your own books from scratch, including pamphlet stitch, Japanese stab binding and concertina books. You’ll also learn how to create small hardcover books, using coloured bookcloth. The course will be taught in a step by step way and you’ll come away with lots of ideas for future bookbinding projects.

Who is this workshop for?

This is an introductory course for beginners, those who have some bookbinding skills already will benefit from learning some new tips and gain inspiration for new projects.

Do I need to bring anything?

All materials will be provided. Participants are welcome to bring along any decorated papers to use as covers and end papers – your tutor will show examples of these on your first session.
