Workshop: Hardcover Coptic Journal
A quintessential binding, the Coptic stitch gets its name from the Copts and was created in North Africa. This binding was originally sewn through slats of wood used for the cover. Today binders use a Coptic stitch to create unique designs along the spine or inside covered spine bindings.
Join our workshop to create your own beautiful hardcover Coptic journal. The Coptic stitch is a great jumping-off point for beginner and intermediate binders. Join us!
