Second Saturday Workshop – Long-stitch Journal w/Lotta Helleberg

In this workshop on Saturday, April 12, we will learn how to create a paper-covered journal using long-stitch binding
We’ll start by enhancing the cover with watercolors and other techniques, then prepare the signatures and cover for binding.
The resulting blank book will be both attractive and functional.
