The limp vellum binding is one of the most beautiful traditional structures. Using calf vellum covers, alum-tawed hide, and bone clasps, students make their own model of this binding. Students learn the herringbone stitch, hand-sewn headbands and the lacing in and covering of this flexible, durable binding that dates from the fourteenth century.
If you don’t already own bookbinding tools, expect to spend approximately $200 on tools for this course, in addition to tuition.
