Made in full leather, these miniature books fit perfectly in the palm of your hand.  You will be able to create one plain and one decorated cover.  All participants will complete one book with blank pages during class, and will begin a second decorative book using simple leather decorating techniques.  The binding structure is simple enough for a beginner but produces a sophisticated result for special projects.  

This workshop will introduce you to beginner level bookbinding skills that can be used in future projects. No previous experience is required.
