Join Tine for her first time at our show. Tine will be assisted by Rachel Roet, both from the Netherlands. Tine and Rachel will guide you while you learn the first steps of bookbinding. In the morning we will make at least three (possibly more) simple books to practice how to cut and measure book blocks and covers. After lunch we will make an ‘old’ book with raised bands on the spine (with or without clasp). All books will have glued spines. A lot of fun, lots of books, enough to fill a library. You will go home with know how and material to make 40 books at home.
