SEPTEMBER
\n3-Part Bradel Binding<\/a><\/strong>
\nSeptember 7 \u2013 10 (Thursday \u2013 Sunday)
\nSan Francisco Center for the Book
\nSan Francisco, CA<\/p>\n

Register here.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

The 3-Part Bradel binding offers a unique aesthetic over a traditional case binding. As the name suggests, the binding is assembled in three parts, which encourages the binder to use different materials to cover the spine and covers. For this workshop, students will use leather to cover the spine and cloth or paper for the covers. Students will be guided as they pare their own leather.<\/p>\n

Students will also be using a variety of bindery equipment such as a sewing frame, job backer, plow and Kwikprint to complete their structure. We will also cover how to create a simple painted, decorative edge and stamp a custom label.<\/p>\n

Millimeter Binding<\/a>
\n<\/strong>September 23 \u2013 29
\nMaine Media Workshops + College
\nRockport, ME<\/p>\n

Register here.<\/a><\/p>\n

The millimeter binding came about during the first World War when leather became a scarce resource for binders. Still wanting to provide an elegant leather binding to their clients, binders would use a minimal amount of leather to cover the spine, putting a millimeter or two of leather onto the boards. In this workshop students, will be creating a Rubow-style millimeter binding, learning how to make paste papers and work with leather. Each student will finish the course with a book wrapped in their own paste paper and with a thin strip of leather running across the top and bottom of the binding. This class is open to all and a great introduction to book arts!<\/p>\n
