Coptic Stitch Bookbinding Class

In this step-by-step class you’ll learn how to make your very own hand-bound journal—no experience needed!

✨ Why Bookmaking?

I remember the first book I ever made. It was during a little class at a local art shop, and I was in awe that I had stitched something so beautiful. That feeling never left me.

In 2020, I rediscovered bookbinding during an art retreat, and since then I’ve made over 50 hand-bound journals. They hold my notes, sketches, prayers, grocery lists, and dreams. They’ve become a beautiful, practical part of my everyday life—and now, I want to show you how to make your own.
