Bookmaking
<p>In this class, we will warm up by learning a simple bookbinding technique that takes few materials and move up to sewing, gluing and finishing our 64-page soft-cover books! This class is a 3-day class to allow us the time and space to learn the basics of folding book signatures, sewing bindings, how to use a book press and finally how to attach a cover. The materials fee covers all of the shared materials for the class as well as a basic book-clamp for binding that each student will take home. Students will also be asked to bring or find a piece of fabric that they would like to use to cover their book before the last class. Materials Fee $20.</p><p>Registration is required prior to the class start date. If you have questions or would like to register, please visit <a href="http://www.kirkwood.edu/ce">www.kirkwood.edu/ce</a> or contact 319-398-1022.</p> 2019-12-11 20:00:00 -06002/11/206:00 p.m.Kirkwood Community College, Horticulture/Floral CareersCedar Rapids -
