Abstract: In this class we will make a 5x7 art journal. Learn

lay perfectly flat when opened, making the pages easy to write or draw on.
There will be a selection of pre-cut decorative papers for your book covers as
well as various colors of waxed thread for sewing.
All aspects of the book will be discussed: covers, spine, end
papers, and signatures.
