Launceston - Tuesday 22nd September - Bookbinding

Launceston Brown Owls will be meeting again next month on Tuesday 22nd September at 7.30pm at Seworld, 88 Elizabeth Street, Launceston.

The lovely Isis is running a little class in bookbinding if you care to join in... Check out her lovely Etsy shop for a bit of an idea of what we'll be doing: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=48514. As always if you want to do your own thang, be our guest!

Materials Required for Enthusiastic Bookbinders:
*2 sturdy covers, roughly A5 is a nice size to work with (...old book covers, game boards cut to size, old record cut to size...)
*30 pieces of paper, the same height and double the width of the covers (eg. if each cover is 19cm high x 13cm wide, the paper should be 19cm x 26cm)
*about 2m of embroidery thread
*embroidery needle.
*scissors
*pencil
*ruler
Isis will bring a hand drill for people to drill the holes in their covers.

BYO teacup and a small plate to share if you can xxx
RSVP to the blog ladies!

I am bursting to come along to a brown owl night since hearing about it, but i don't understand this blogging thing, nor if i have to have a 'membership' to come along? Can I just turn up?

Mrs Smith said...
