Coptic Bookbinding with Reclaimed Covers

  • CraftStudies Studio & School 87 Maple Street Hartford, VT, 05001 United States (map)

Saturday, March 15, 2025 | 9A - 4P | One-day workshop | $100

Learn how to make a Coptic-style hand-sewn book using vintage discarded book covers, turning an old item into a beautiful new sketchbook or journal! Coptic binding is one of the oldest bookbinding methods in history, and deceptively simple - the flexible binding allows the book to open flat, and the exposed looping stitches create a beautiful braid-like effect. No prior bookbinding experience is required.

Supplies: $25 supply fee payable to Teaching Artist on the day of the workshop.
