BAL • Adult • Fore-Edge Fold Book on Three Tapes with Hard Cover • Sun (Aug 2) • $150 • East

$150

with Sophia Dixon Dillo

Calendar Aug 2, 2026 at 10 am

This fore-edge fold book opens wonderfully flat, making it an ideal companion for drawings or prints, writing, or a memory/legacy book. Each page is created by folding a piece of high-quality drawing paper, giving the finished book a clean, elegant feel in the hands. We will begin by reviewing terminology and tools. We will then tear paper down to size, fold and punch our signatures, and sew them over three woven tapes. Once the pages are complete, we will glue them up and shape the text block. After a lunch break, we will cover the hardboards with book cloth or decorative paper, then attach the tapes to the inside of the covers and finish with a decorative endpaper. By the end of the day, you will have a completed book and the skills to make more on your own. You will be provided with hand-drawn directions, as well as terminology and resource lists. This class is for beginners to advanced book makers alike. This is one of my favorite structures to teach – I can’t wait to share it with you!

Ages: 16+

This class takes place at Groundworks East (3063 E. Sterling Cir)

Will be available to register on Tuesday, May 26 at 8:00am.
