Workshop: Buttonhole Binding

About

Button, button, who’s got a buttonhole binding? Join our April workshop and create your own buttonhole-bound journal. Buttonhole bindings are a medieval binding dating back to the 16th century. Its decorative peek-a-boo opening on the spine exposes the book’s signatures, adding a fun variation to your repertoire. Originally an adaptation to a limp wrapper binding, it can be incorporated into limp and hardcover bindings. This variation is perfect for those just beginning their bookbinding journey or anyone wanting to learn a new, uncommon binding style. All supplies will be provided. Cost: $50 per person Date: May 8, 2027 Time: 12:00-3:00pm PT Instructor: Alexandra Sarette
