French Link Stitch Bookbinding
Enjoy this decorative addition to the Coptic stitch binding.
Service Description
In this workshop, you will learn the decorative French Link stitch, combined with the traditional Coptic stitch to create a beautiful, handmade journal or sketchbook. From cutting and wrapping your book cover to folding every signature and putting it all together, your creativity and hand will be in every step in the process. You will first choose multi-media paper or white journaling paper, depending on the book you'd like to make. Next, you will make the covers of your book and fold your signatures. Next, we stitch! We will create templates for our holes, learn the stitching process for the French Link and then work until completed. You will have the option to stay until your project is complete. All materials + snacks + coffee/tea are provided. This workshop is for adults and hosted at the Wild Arts Learning Center in Springfield, MO. For locals: just out east Sunshine and around the bend from Turner's Station off J Hwy. The address and directions are emailed upon booking.
