The Coptic stitch originates from ancient Egypt and is one of the earliest bookbinding methods. With its hard covers and exposed spine stitching, the modern Coptic stitch is a popular hand bookbinding method due to its versatility and simplicity. A Coptic bound book will open completely flat, making it an ideal structure for sketchbooks. In this workshop, you will make a blank sketchbook or journal using the Coptic stitch bookbinding method. You will receive step-by-step instructions to make your book, and you will have options for students to personalize their books with decorative covers and different types of paper for the pages. Some experience with either bookbinding or sewing is recommended.
