BOOKBINDING WORKSHOP

The Alternative Print Workshop is proud to announce an exciting new range of Bookbinding workshops with Master Bookbinder Alan Jeffrey. Numerous binding methods are available to the aspiring bookbinder and great care was taken in designing this foundational workshop. Follow-up workshops covering a range of different and advanced bookbinding techniques will soon be announced. In this full-day intensive and practical workshop you will learn the basic and most necessary bookbinding skills and create a 64 page adhesive-free limp binding book. Paper basics and tearing are discussed and demonstrated, as well as all the tools, techniques, stitching, knotting, cover assembly and binding plans associated with this beautiful handcrafted process. Your hand-bound book can be used as an artist book, diary, notebook or sketchbook.
