Workshop 2 | 10th October 2022
Today I attended the Bookbinding Workshop with Lorraine. This workshop was a lot of fun (as you can see from my pictures) and it was so cool being able to make your own sketchbook in a matter of hours.
We used traditional bookbinding methods, using traditional tools such as a bone folder, special linen thread and beeswax etc.
This workshop was challenging as you had to be very precise with folding, measurements and cutting. All the while trying not to cut yourself with a sharp blade!
My favourite part of the workshop was using the Dos-à-dos binding method as it gave us not one, but two notebooks in the end.
Although I did enjoy this process, I was unhappy with the end result and decided to pass it on to a friend for their use.
