Various cover options will also be explored. All stages of the process will be covered, from concept to print, including picture editing/sequencing, materials selection and sourcing, with plenty of time for discussion.

In this small group workshop you will learn how to create two types of beautiful, simple to make, stitch bound/sewn, inkjet printed books.
The easiest to make is a 3-hole sewn book, comprising a single section of several folded and gathered printed sheets, bound with a single thread. The other method We will cover is the even more decorative, Japanese side-sewn/stab-sewn process (similar to Joseph’s The Floods photobook). For both types of book you will learn how best to print back-to-back single and folded pages. All the other stages of the process will also be covered, from concept to print, including picture editing/sequencing and sewing, with plenty of time for discussion.
Of particular benefit is the opportunity to discuss and pick up tips on picture sequencing in relation to the narrative content of your stitch/sewn book.
