CLOSED Bookbinding with Text

from $175.00

How do you manage the bookbinding process when you’re working with printed pages?

April 5, 2025

10am-6pm

You will bind your own copy of Frankenstein, Pride and Prejudice, or Secret Garden (your choice) as a hollow tube binding. This style of binding has a rounded, flexible spine. This is not a structure for beginners. You should have taken at least one bookbinding workshop where you learned about paper grain and applying adhesives.

You will learn how to maintain registration as you sew (keep printed pages aligned and in order), round and back the sign with a backing hammer and backing press, and sew endbands. You should already know how to sew a book using a French link stitch, and you should already be familiar with casing-in.

Please bring the following with you:

  • Pencil

  • Scissors

  • Bonefolder 

  • Bookbinding awl 

  • Xacto knife or Olfa blade

  • Cutting mat

  • Metal-edged ruler

  • Glue brush (we recommend a 1" flat brush)


All Classes are held at Editions, located at 6520 5th Ave S #104 Seattle, WA 98108. Go through the red door (or big white door if it’s open) and turn left under the stairs.

If you have any questions about this class, please contact the coordinator sarah@editions.studio.
