Class Description: The Shrigley is an innovative way to house loose ephemera, postcards, photographs and more. The pages are folded into frames, allowing you to easily add or remove pieces from the book. In this workshop, students will learn the folding techniques to create the frames with various corner styles. Once the pages are assembled, students will finish their projects by making two cover options: a hardcover case with a ribbon tie and a self- closing softcover binding.

Class Kits: Class Materials Kits will be sent by the instructor. Shipping costs and kits are included in the class price.

Tools: Basic bookbinding tools along with a 1/4″ chisel, hammer and pin vise (size B) or awl. A detailed list in the SDBA Welcome Letter will be sent two weeks prior to class.
