This week saw the completion of the bookbinding evening course that I have been teaching in Brunel Arts Centre, and I am delighted by how the group responded to the exacting challenge of binding their own books. In my own practice I make books to document the outcomes of my work, but the objectives of the participants in this group were as diverse as making books for creative writing, making books for gifts and several had a general curiosity about how a book is constructed. Whatever the aims of each books creation, the results are stunning and I’m delighted by how committed the group were to achieving the outcomes shown in the pictures.
Many thanks to James Keith for inspiring me to run this course.
