Buttonhole Binding and the Pocket Fold Accordion Book

With Megan Stallworthy

11am-4pm | £70/£60 concessions

In this exciting, practical bookbinding workshop with tutor Megan Stallworthy you will learn how to make two beautiful book structures: the Buttonhole Binding and the Pocket Fold Accordion Book.

The Buttonhole Binding is a non-adhesive binding with decorative stitching on the spine. It opens completely flat which makes it ideal to use as a sketchbook, notebook or journal. The Pocket Fold Accordion Book is perfect for collecting and storing ideas and inspirations.

You will learn about different bookbinding tools, materials and techniques, with everything supplied. The workshop is suitable for complete beginners as well as those with some experience in bookbinding.
