"Book in a Box"
Review of Bonnie Thompson Norman , September 23, 2008
This is a great class for someone who wants to learn a traditional style of handsewn hardbound book.
Bonnie's a great teacher: patient, creative, extremely organized, and very good at communicating with students of all skill levels.
At the end of the class, you take home a beautifully bound book in a clamshell box, and you'll be proud to use it and show it to all of your friends.
