Book & Paper Arts Workshops
Making Book Cloth (Online)
Schedule:
Jul 27: 3:00pm - 4:00pm (ET)
In this demonstration, learn two different techniques for making book cloth, a method used to back cloth with paper so that it can be used to cover books or boxes. The traditional Asian method uses wheat paste and mulberry paper and the 21st-century method uses commercially available products. These methods make it possible to glue any fabric to a surface. The decorative possibilities are endless with these techniques. Materials list provided for students to make book cloth on their own.
