Bookbinding Workshop

Yesterday I taught a bookbinding class at Artsway in the New Forest with 9 very lovely ladies. This was the first class I've taught at this venue and I was really pleased with how it went.


I managed to get a quick snap of just a few books as we were so pushed for time. We sewed the 'Secret Belgian Binding' first, followed by the mediaeval binding you see in the picture.
