Learn to make simple and versatile handmade books using a minimum of equipment and easy to master techniques. The accordion, flag and reverse flat piano hinge books are no-sew books ideal for displaying artwork. We will make an example of each and learn how to adapt them to suit your own purposes. Then we will use pamphlet stitch, a canvas cover, and your choice of paper to make a custom sketchbook.
