This year’s topic is crafting a leather fine binding that is rounded but
not backed. This is a more gentle way of forwarding that has its roots
in Medieval binding. It is also a great solution for students who do not
have heavy binding equipment in their studios. Students will complete
one full leather binding with leather hinges and edge-to edge doublures,
multi-color sewn endbands, made endsheets with decorative paper, and
champhered boards.
