https://calendar.pitt.edu/event/bookbinding-basics-pamphlet-stitchWant to create something beautiful and functional with your own hands? If you can thread a needle, you can bind a book! Learn how to make your own journal to record your notes, sketches, stories, and more.
Pamphlet stitch is a simple yet elegant bookbinding technique that’s both beginner-friendly and versatile. We’ll guide you through the ins and outs, from folding and prepping paper to choosing and personalizing a cover to stitching it all together.
Take a break and spend some time engaged in mindful making, and leave with not only a completed handmade book but also the skills to continue this rewarding and practical craft on your own.
Facilitated by William Gillis, Center for Creativity
