Japanese binding workshop

I have taught a three hours workshop at Paper Source Brookline, MA, today. Students made three Japanese binding books, a noble binding, hempleaf and tortoiseshell binding, with silk screen Yuzen Japanese paper, on the cover.
Few samples and a work in progress picture, here below.

    These are beautiful. I learned of Japanese binding while watching a crafting show on TV and since then many of my favorite blank books have been made using this technique.

    Everything you make is so careful and beautiful! I love the new little card too.

    And thanks for the Julia Rothman pic. I think I'll update that post tomorrow with your contribution.
