Join Joelle Webber in learning one of her favorite bindings. The French sewn technique is a historical binding from around the 15th century. Originally bound with vellum covers that hid the beautiful stitching pattern. In class we will create paper covers that display the uniquely twisted stitching. Ending with a multi-gathering book, which can be used as a journal, to jot notes, collect favorite recipes or poems, and more. Tools & materials provided.
