Coptic Bookbinding Class with Nancy VanWinkle

Saturday, May 19 at 1 PM - 5 PM

  • Craftsbury Town Hall, 85 S Craftsbury Rd

Learn the whole Coptic bookbinding process from start to finish! We will select beautiful handmade papers for the hardbound covers, and sew the open-spine binding using a traditional paired needle Coptic binding technique. Coptic binding creates a lovely chain stitch results in a structurally strong book with high-quality mixed-media pages for writing, drawing, doodling, or whatever your heart desires! We will also learn how to make a button closure for our books. This promises to be a full-immersion experience in book-binding; participants will leave with a handmade book and a wealth of knowledge. All materials are included! Open to participants ages 12 and older.

Class fee is $40 ($30 for students and seniors)
