Bitesize Bookbinding: Autumn/Winter Bundle

Location: Ink On Mesh, The Heart of Newhaven, Edinburgh
Date/time: 6-9pm, Thursday 28 November, 5 & 12 December 

As the nights draw in, join me for some coorie inn crafting – a great opportunity to create a bundle of books for yourself or make some unique Christmas presents.

In each workshop I will share my upcycled twist on a different book structure, with plenty of opportunity for you to add your own personal touches –

• 28 November: Exposed link stitch binding – create a chunky book with faux leather cover and decorative link stitching incorporating different colours of thread. There will also be chance to add decorative pages, a fastening and beaded page divider.
• 5 December: No stitch hard back notebook – create a hardback book with book cloth and elasticated spine that accommodates removable pages. This makes for a great reusable notebook, complete with pockets and wind round fastening.
• 12 December: Mini Bookbinding – create a number of mini books with decorative exposed stitching, using remnant materials and leather/pleather off cuts. I’ll share a number of decorative stitch and fastening ideas and will help you experiment with different combinations. These make for great Christmas gifts and tree decorations as well as nifty little notebooks.

> Following the workshop you will receive video instructions that you can refer back to so you can make more books at home.

Accessibility: the Ink on Mesh studio is up a flight of stairs and isn’t accessible by lift, if this is a problem please get in touch as alternative workshop space on the ground floor is a possibility.

Price includes all materials, refreshments and follow up video instructions.
