THSG BOOK ARTS STUDY GROUP, FEBRUARY AND MARCH

We meet from 10:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. at the 22nd St. Antiques Mall, February 4 and March 3, 2012

Golden, Chapters 7 & 8. The Codex and Codex Variations
Shirley & Curt Dornberg, Workshop Facilitators

During the next two workshops, we will make a multi-sectioned sewn book, bound with a split board binding.

In February, we will sew the signatures into the text block (see Golden, pp. 147-149), and in March bind that text block using the split board technique on  pp. 210-211.

In February, we are also going to review five easy structures from Golden, Chapters 2-6:

  •  X book, p. 32
    Concertina with tabs, p. 64
    Flower-fold book, p. 67
    Ledger book, p. 89
    Pop-up album accordion, p. 122-123

All of these five will be appropriate to share with the Surface Design Study Group at their February meeting.
To make all these bindings, you will need some materials and supplies. Please e-mail Curt or Shirley at cdornberg@comcast.net for a list of materials to bring to the workshop.
