Under the expert guidance of Linette from Leeds-based binders Anachronalia, you’ll create your very own A6 notebook from scratch.  Here’s what you’ll learn:  

  • Sewing pages together: Learn the basics of binding pages securely. 
  • Attaching endpapers: Giving your book a professional-looking finish. 
  • Rounding and lining the spine. 
  • Designing covers: Choose from an array of book cloth and decorative papers to design a unique exterior. 
  • Casing your book: Complete the process and take home your very own Thackray journal. 

Spaces are limited, so be sure to book your spot today.
