Bookbinding for Junk Journaling Workshop
About this Event
In this beginner friendly workshop you’ll learn the basics of bookbinding in a style that Jessie likes to call “messy bookbinding”. Without the pressure of exact measurements or perfectly straight edges, you'll leave class with a finished journal ready to be filled with your creativity!
Workshop highlights:
- Learn the pamphlet stitch, a great bookbinding technique for beginnings
- Personalize your book with a fabric cover and ribbon closure
- Incorporate non-traditional pages inside your book using materials from Jessie’s collection including vintage wallpaper samples and fine art papers
