Coptic Binding 2

  • Minnesota Center for Book Arts 1011 South Washington Avenue #100 Minneapolis, MN, 55415 United States (map)

Saturday, September 26; 10am–4pm CT

Take your Coptic binding skills further in this intermediate, in-person workshop focused on advanced techniques and project design.

We’ll begin with an introduction to advanced Coptic binding that goes beyond basic station and sewing patterns, with multiple thread colors, needles and sewing angles. In the afternoon, participants will design and construct their own variation. With instructor guidance, participants will plan station placement, threads and needles, and create their own unique design. Participants will walk away with one advanced binding and one self-designed project.

Level: Intermediate. Experience making a single-needle and paired-needle Coptic binding is highly recommended.
Certificate: 6 hours, Category B
