This is an advanced class only for participants who have taken the introductory Bookbinding I workshop. Participants will take home a fully leather-bound book. Textblock will be presewn. Participants will secure the hard covers; add a leather or cloth spine, and decorative paper, to the covers; and lay down the endpapers. They will learn new techniques not taught in the basic course such as Rounding & Backing and Headbanding. Participants will also be provided step-by-step written instructions they can take home.
All materials are included, and tools will be provided.
