This year we decided to take a fresh new approach to our monthly bookbinding sessions - we will be taking the year to produce our own projects. The first three months will focus on preparing papers (covers, background, end papers, lining papers, pages etc). The next three months will focus on developing content and deciding on structure. The final 3 months will be used to construct structures.
We started the year with a weekend print workshop under the guidance of local print makers Rosalie Thompson and Julz Henderson. The project workshop proved very popular and everyone managed to produce plenty of materials for their project.
The pics below show what we achieved.
