Class size 1 on 1 (public classes), 2 to 20
  £260 (PayPal Pay in 3 available)

Make beautiful keepsake boxes and book sleeves using traditional bookbinding techniques. Work with traditional bookbinding materials and get creative with contemporary options too.
You will learn how to design and size a box for your chosen project, cut your materials, glue and construct your box. Make a couple of small boxes or one more ambitious piece - you choose.
This workshop is a guaranteed one-to-one session so that I can tailor the workshop to your interests and needs as an individual. You can achieve so much this way. Develop skills to start a new business, take up a new hobby or craft for the joy of it... I can ensure the day progresses the way you want it to.
A one-night self-catering stay is available for free with this booking in our on-site retro caravan (subject to availability). Please enquire.
All courses, workshops and kits come with free support afterwards. Email me or arrange a video call. I love to see what my students and fellow crafters are up to and really enjoy answering questions or helping if I can. So any booking isn’t just for the day; it’s the start of a crafting friendship!
What you'll get
  • Endless tea and coffee.
  • All the materials and tools needed to make your books, sketchbooks, and/or journals to take home.

I first learnt to crochet as a child and spent hours and hours making, sewing, knitting and learning every new technique possible in art, craft and design. After a degree in graphics and 16 years of experience teaching Textiles, Graphics, Art & Design and Design & Technology, I strongly believe in developing my own practice to be the best tutor I can be. I am continually inspired by my students of all ages, so it's definitely a two-way street!
