Create your own coptic sewing book with Camille, bookbinder in Nancy
Would you like to discover the know-how of Coptic seam binding? Camille welcomes you to her workshop in the heart of Nancy to show you her craft and the techniques of this ancient art.
Trained in the art of bookbinding at the École Tolbiac and holder of the « brevet des métiers d’art », Camille will introduce you to the bookbinder’s tools and machines: the guillotine, the shears, the percussion press, the backing vice… You’ll learn how to find the sense of paper and cardboard. Learn more about book assembly techniques. Folding, cutting, drilling, sewing, gluing, binding… you’ll know all about it!
Camille will give you all the advice you need to make a success of your copy-bound book. After explaining the special features of this method, which allows you to open your notebook completely flat, she’ll guide you through the process. The result will be a magnificent self-bound notebook: you’ll be able to combine the useful with the pleasurable, with the added pride of having done it yourself!
Camille will provide you with all the tools and materials you need to complete your personalized project.
