Work with Glen, an award winning bookmaker and elected Fellow of Designer Bookbinders. The Bradel style of binding a book is common in continental Europe. In this workshop we shall make a Bradel bound book from scratch, starting out by piercing and hand-sewing blank pages. We will then create the hard back case which forms the binding and then cover it with book cloth and decorative paper before securing the endpapers. You will take away a completed book and detailed notes so you can make further books at home.
Suitable for beginners, we shall also discuss the choice of materials and basic equipment for bookbinding.
All resources are provided. Important note: Participants will need to be able to comfortably handle a needle and thread as well as use a craft knife and other basic craft tools.
Tickets are £75 per person
