This workshop highlights the versatility of the Drum Leaf binding by
presenting first the familiar quarter cloth with breakaway spine
structure, then seven variations.
All versions open flat, are perfect for edition work, and can be
constructed quickly in a sparsely equipped home studio.
The Drum Leaf binding is the perfect structure for printmakers,
photographers, or anyone who desires to present visual narratives with
no sewing thread to interrupt the flow of imagery. Because a Drum Leaf
is made of single-sided folios, not signatures, the complexities of
imposition are not necessary when laying out text.
The format is a series of live tutorials via Zoom. The tutorials are
recorded and the videos are available to registered students for 90
days. Students need not be present for the live sessions. Workshop fee
includes supplies and a detailed handout, which are mailed to arrive in
time for the first session.
