Limp Vellum Binding

After the use of paper for printing and writing, animal vellum (or parchment) was used for covers. A strong durable material, vellum makes for strong and flexible covering material. The pages are sewn onto supports of tawed skin and laced into the covers.This workshop will teach you to create a soft- bound book that will hold up to repeated use.

This workshop runs 9 - 12 hours (1 1/2 - 2 days).
