Kingfisher Piano Hinge Book led by Gina Pisello
SDBA Monthly Meeting
Wed. March 10, 2021

Gina will be teaching us her own unique take on The Piano Hinge binding which was originally created by Hedi Kyle. Directions can be found in a variety of books including: Non-Adhesive Binding: Books Without Paste or Glue by Keith Smith, Cover to Cover, by Shereen LaPlantz and Creating Handmade Books, by Alisa Golden. It is a relatively simple binding wherein the spines of the pages are notched and woven together using sticks, string or even paper. The book can be displayed open in the round or closed with the spine to the side or on top. This versatility and simplicity make it a good structure to have in your repertoire.
