Sewn Book Bindings:
Pamphlet Stitch and Beyond

Learn to sew a dos a dos (back to back) pamphlet book, starting with a three-hole binding and then moving to five holes. Pamphlet stitch is easy and adaptable to cards, small books and more complex structures with many pages. This class is open to all levels and will teach the student about paper grain, unusual threads, and how to use tools such as a bone folder, awl, and heavy thread with beeswax.
