Please Note:

  • This workshop is suitable for beginners with basic crafting, cutting, folding, and sewing skills.

  • While no prior bookbinding experience is required, this is a technical workshop, and participants should be comfortable using sharp instruments and able to follow verbal instructions.

  • Enthusiasm for bookmaking and sewing is essential, and a certain level of capability and confidence is expected.

  • Tea, coffee, and biscuits will be provided in abundance—because they’re essential!

  • All materials and tools will be supplied.
