The Flatback Case Binding is the quintessential hardcover book with sewn signatures adhered to the covers. In the first session, students will learn how to sew a series of signatures together. In the second session, we’ll construct the covers from binders’ board covered with bookbinding cloth and decorative paper. This is an intermediate-level class with some bookbinding experience recommended (at the Ink Shop or elsewhere).
