Building on a classic pamphlet stitch you will learn some practical bookmaking skills that can easily be done at home, then explore how the complex concertina form can be manipulated to create beautiful results. Along the way we will discuss colour, texture, papers and why we make books.

This workshop is part of the Fruitmarket's Artists' Bookmarket, an annual celebration of artists’ book culture. Taking place over two busy weekend days with stalls laid out to showcase a wide array of work. Enjoy carefully selected stalls of artist-led publishing and hand-crafted books, as well as a great programme of talks and workshops.
