Binding Fundamentals: rounding, backing, and other engineering essentials.

July 6, 13, 20, 27 | Thursdays, four sessions

6-8:30 pm Eastern Time | 5-7:30 Central | 4-6:30 Mountain | 3-5:30 Pacific

A handsome, functional book is built on a solid foundation of
traditional forwarding skills. Students will review and reinforce these
skills by going through all the steps of crafting a traditional binding
prior to covering:

·folding, marking up and punching signatures

·selecting endsheets appropriate for board/case attachment and full

·opening

·sewing on and off a sewing frame

·gluing up and rounding the spine

·lightly backing the text block

·sewing endbands

·spine lining

To complete the binding we will anchor the text block into a folded
paper case.

Binding Fundamentals is a prerequisite for all advanced binding
workshops at Karen Hanmer Book Arts. Moving forward almost all online
workshops will be advanced level.
