Construct a Three Section Hardback Quarter Bound Book.
This workshop is suitable both for beginners and those with previous bookmaking experience. Guy will expertly guide you through the construction of a hardback book with multiple interior folded page options (concertina, for example). This is a pocket sized book that is strong and durable. Quarter binding means a cloth covered spine which extends as a hinge onto the spine edge and includes two covered fore-edge corners. The remainder of the book board is covered with paper. A decorative feature will be a visible stitched diamond X pattern on the spine.
