Workshop: Japanese Stab Book Binding

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

Japanese Stab Book Binding:

Japanese stab binding is an easy, quick way to make a book. It can be used to bind single sheets of paper into a long-lasting book. It can be done without fancy equipment or much sewing experience. This workshop will be a walk through the easiest yet elegant way to make a Japanese stab bound book. (I’ll also mention some of the more common variations.) You don’t need previous experience.

Location: Arnecliffe Studio

Date and Time: Sunday, April 19, 12-3pm
