In this workshop, each participant will take a book in need of repair and give it a complete renovation. After removing the old cover, you'll prepare the pages for stitching, create a new wrap-around soft cover, and then reassemble using a decorative longstitch. Bring a non-precious book to work with or choose from a selection that I'll have available. If you want to bring your own book, I will send instructions before the class on selecting a book that will work with this project. *Note: this workshop is intended to teach a method for working artistically with non-valuable books...always consult a book conservator for valuable books in need of repair.*
