Coptic Journal Binding

Stitch your own journal from scratch.

There is something deeply satisfying about a book you've sewn by hand — and the Coptic stitch is one of the most beautiful methods in bookbinding. In this class you'll create a hand-sewn journal with two hard covers and a striking exposed spine. Choose your thread color and make it yours.

Your kit includes: a Bee's Books & Binds pencil bag with a bone folder, short grain text weight paper, a hole punching guide, book covering, book board, endpapers, and an awl.
