We all have odd photos, postcards, memos, business cards and bits and bobs lying around that we don’t want to throw away but for which we can’t find a place. 

In this workshop we will be making a hardback book with many useful pockets for storing such things; alternatively it can be used simply as an album for photos or recipes, with plenty of space on each page for your own notes. It also makes a lovely present. In short, it is an extremely versatile structure.

The fun of this workshop is not only the making of the book structure itself but also the decoration of it with collage elements that we will make ourselves. No experience in collage or book art is required and you may come without any idea of what you would like your keepsake book to look like - with collage inspiration tends to come with the bits and pieces!

All materials, a light lunch and refreshments are included in the workshop fee.

This course aims to give you the initial skills and experience to put together a hardback book from pre-cut materials. You will be concentrating on how to sew and assemble a case bound, flat back, book. This course is a good grounding before you embark on bespoke book sizes,
using challenging covering materials, and variations of case styles. You should also come away with a book you will be able to use or give as a gift.

We will be learning to sew a multi section watercolour sketchbook using pre cut to size 350gsm paper. Using pre-cut boards we will learn how to make a hard cover case for our book using a popular book binding material called ‘buckram’. You will be able to choose your colours from
an array of off cuts from Ludlow bookbinders. We will add precut end papers, prepare our book for casing in by dressing our spine, to give strength to our book and then finally we will learn about making a decorative label for our book. We will have a chance to deboss our personalised title using a hot foil stamping machine. The last step will be to put it all together, casing in our book block and attaching our label.

This workshop is open to anyone, however it will be helpful if you already have a little bit of bookbinding experience, for example by attending our Introduction to Bookbinding workshop, or previous craft experience.

All materials, a light lunch and refreshments are included in the workshop fee.
