- Monday, June 6, 1:00 - 3:00 pm

About the Workshop:
This two-session virtual workshop taught by CBA instructor Scott McCarney is an introduction to the paired-station coptic sewing (dating from the 5th century CE and still in use today!) which is suitable for binding single sheets, folios and/or gathered sections in a single book structure. It is an exposed spine, unsupported sewing that is sturdy and allows the book to lie flat.
We will be making two books: a single sheet sample with card pages and one of folded and gathered sections. Once these have been mastered, the techniques can be combined to make books of an infinite variety of sections and materials.
Required Materials:
Students will need the following materials:
- cardboard (cereal boxes or post cards work well)
- paper
- Bone folder
- Paper awl
- Paper knife (a table knife or butter knife will suffice)
- Pencil
- Ruler
- Needles
- Thread (two colors of thread would be good but not a deal breaker)
