About this Event
Event Photos

Coptic bound books have a beautiful structure that allows the book to open out flat, making them a joy to work in.

This bookbinding workshop teaches you how to reclaim hard covers from discarded and thrift store books and prepare them to sew a Coptic bound notebook.

You will learn how to make sections of pages to fit your covers and add signature wrappers for an extra layer of interest on the spine.

To finish you will be guided step by step to sew your notebook with a single needle Coptic stitch using coloured linen thread.

We will be using a choice of papers with coloured linen thread, so you will be able to customise your design, making your books truly unique to you.

Some sewing or basic bookbinding skills would be helpful however plenty of one to one time and help is given.

Bring along a small hardbacked book that you'd like to upcycle or choose from the selection available in the studio.
