Coptic Stitch Class *New Dates!*
I’m so pleased to announce that there is a new date for another class of ‘Deconstructed & Reclaimed: From discarded novel to Coptic journal‘; one of my most popular bookbinding workshops!
In this class, participants will learn how to craft their own hand-bound hardcover journal using discarded books. This workshop will introduce the tools of the trade, materials, and techniques to deconstruct a book and repurpose it into a new journal, using the Coptic stitch to bind the book.
Perfect for beginners or those looking to practice and brush up on their Coptic binding skills, everyone will leave with a finished project.
When: Sunday September 18, 10am – 5pm
Where: Canadian Bookbinders and Book Artists Guild, 80 Ward Street, Toronto
