Drum Leaf Binding is an innovative binding that opens flat with no stitching to interrupt images or text that cross the fold of the page.
Using minimal adhesive, single-sided folios are stacked and glued to create the text block.
The resulting book is useful as a journal and sketchbook as well as an artist’s book featuring prints, paintings, photographs, and more.
In this class, participants will fold folios, glue folios to construct a text block, and then case the text block in a hard cover that features a breakaway cloth spine and decorative paper.
