Studio Sunday (on a Monday)

CollageIt

Have you taken a look at the Sprouts Press workshops page lately?  There’s a lot of activity going on!  And the next class is this saturday at the Canadian Bookbinders and Book Artists Guild here in Toronto!

It’s a fun class of dissecting old books and re-binding them into new, blank journals!  It’s aptly titled: Deconstructed & Reclaimed: From discarded novel to Coptic journal, go here to see details.

While this class is full, you can still join the waitlist or take a look at the other class I’m teaching at CBBAG later in the fall; the Caterpillar Stitch!  Go here to see that class (aren’t you just a bit curious??)

Arrow Stitch in August

DSC_0702After a brief hiatus while we take some much needed time off to rest and rejuvenate, it’s time to start offering Bookbinding Workshops again!

First up is the Hard Cover Arrow Stitch Journal!  I really like this class because you not only learn the binding, but how to make a hard cover as well.  If you’ve dabbled in bookbinding at all, you’ll know how valuable a skill this is!!

What: Hard Cover Arrow Stitch Workshop
When: August 21, 1pm – 4pm
Where: Graven Feather, 906 Queen Street West, Toronto
