Learn two binding techniques with Erin Fletcher from Herringbone Bindery! The Cross Structure gets its name from the interlacing across the spine to bring the covers together. These modern bindings are rooted in techniques found in medieval structures and were created by Carmencho Arregui. Although there are several variations on the Cross Structure, we will explore just two in this workshop. Beginning with the Basics, students will learn the technique for sewing and the fundamental way of interlacing the covers. The Protective variation will be the second model we explore. This binding will have leather covers and include button closures. We will also look at ways of adding texture to the leather. This workshop is suitable for students with any level of bookbinding skill, including beginners, and pricing includes a material kit created and curated by Erin herself!
