During this Bookbinding Workshop, which is suitable for beginners or improvers, you'll be introduced to the basic tools and techniques of bookbinding.
During the day, you'll learn how to make a hardcover sketchbook notebook, which is then yours to keep and take home with you after the workshop.
This course is suitable for those with little or no crafting experience.
Recommendations:
"I had never tried bookbinding before and knew nothing. I left with a lovely notebook and the confidence to try it again at home."
"Kind encouragement from the tutor was excellent. I would recommend this workshop to anyone."
