Next Monday night (28th Sept 2009) I've organised to run a friendly bookbinding class in the cafe space upstairs in the Newtown Berkelouw bookstore. Monday's class will be focused on making the miniature handbound books (60mm x 45mm), with the materials, instructions and templates all provided on the night. The class costs $40 per person and will likely be about 2-3hrs long. BYO cutting mat and tools if you have them (available for sharing if not). The full details are emailed to you when you RSVP.
There are still spaces available, so if you think you might be interested in learning to make one of the miniature books (as shown in the pics), then please RSVP to the email address indicated in the flyer below:
If you're unable to make Monday night's class, I'm also planning a second class on a Sunday afternoon in mid-October. The second class will be focused on a slightly different binding technique and will involve making an A6-sized leatherbound notebook. Again, if you're interested please RSVP to the email address in the flyer, and I can get back to you with all the details when the date/time/location is confirmed.
Hope you can make one of the classes - they're very fun, and the little books make delightful presents :)
Oooh, emailing right now. The one on a Sunday. I'd like to put my hand up now. Woot.
