Jap Stab Binding

A Bookbinding Cause : Exposed Japanese Stab Binding Workshop @ The Arts House, 2 to 7pm

Having fun learning the craft, though fingers aching afterwards as I have to use quite a bit of milk power to pull the needle through the holes. ^-^

The Lecturer is Ian, The Thistle Bindery

Produced two notebooks - one softcover and one hardcover.

This is called KangXi 康熙 binding. Interesting.....

Going to sign up the other bookbinding workshops, especially the Coptic Binding which is the most difficult to make.  Challenging!
