SPIRAL BOOKS

 The August NORBAG workshop will be taught by Margaret Beech, our member from York, UK. The structure will be spiral books. Margaret says there is a certain magic in these surprising spiral books. If time allows, we will make two books that are cut from circles and one book from squares, along with a neat gusseted envelope.





Materials:

  • Four (4) sheets 11 x 8 1/2" copy weight paper. Margaret suggests we use four different colors for the books. Please do not use patterned paper.
  • One (1) sheet 8 1/2" square copy weight paper for the envelope.
  • Circle shapes to trace around, approximately 5 1/4" diameter and 2 3/4" diameter. You can also use a compass.
  • ruler
  • pencil
  • stapler 
  • scissors
  • craft knife
  • bone folder
  • glue stick
Before the workshop, Margaret asks that you trace one set of the two circles and one 5 1/2" square shape on one sheet of colored paper. DO NOT CUT!

When:    Saturday, August 10 at 10 a.m. PDT
