Instructor: Marcia Morse

February 2 and 9 (2 sessions)

9:00 am - 12:00 noon Sunday

Shrigley Binding is an album-style structure that protects artwork but allows for flexible placement and sequence of images. It uses an innovative style of page construction that builds in corners to hold the artwork. There are various ways to join the pages; we will be making an accordion-style binding in which the pages are sewn together, edge to edge. In the first session, we will cut and fold the pages, and sew them together. In the second session, we will construct a hard cover case and attach the pages. If time permits, we will make samples of two other ways of joining pages. Some bookbinding experience is helpful but not required; as with most such processes, patience and precision will be your friends.

A supply fee of $15 paid to the instructor will cover the cost of book board, book cloth, adhesives and other binding materials. A detailed list of tools and materials you will bring will be provided after registration.
