Skill Level: All
Class Description: Translated to “flypaper”, the Tue-Mouche was developed by bookbinder Ben Elbel. The Tue-Mouche is an easy and economical form of bookbinding and perfect for all skill levels. The covers are constructed entirely from heavyweight paper, layered to create rigidity and strength, while the flexible spine allows the binding to open without constraints. In this workshop students will learn how to create the Tue-Mouche binding from start to finish in addition to ways of embellishing the cover through embroidery.
