Learn how to make two sewn books: a hard-bound journal covered with book cloth, and a notebook with a vintage postcard cover. You’ll put together a small journal that’s hand-sewn and covered with gorgeous book cloth, and make a Japanese stab-bound notebook that has a vintage postcard for a cover. But wait, there’s more: You’ll also learn how to use various tools and get some helpful tips and techniques that will make your books turn out great. All materials and tools are included, and there will be lots of supplies to choose from. Extra kits will also be available for purchase.
