Spend a day creating your own handmade book, a personal and lasting memento of your retreat on the Hebridean Isle of Iona. Designed for all skill levels, this full day workshop ensures individual attention with a small class size, enabling you to master traditional bookbinding techniques.
Your finished book will be filled with blank pages, ready to serve as a journal for your reflections or a sketchbook for your artistic inspirations. Uniquely, you will incorporate beautiful, single-origin Iona tweed into your cover, ensuring your creation is a one-of-a-kind piece that truly reflects the island’s heritage.
The session runs from 10:30 am to 4:00 pm, including a lunch break. Please bring reading glasses if you use them, as the binding process involves fine detail work. All necessary materials, tools, and the distinctive Iona tweed are provided.
Important Details:
- Booking: Advance booking is required as places are strictly limited. Bookings close the week before the workshop to allow time for material preparation.
- What to Bring: Only your reading glasses if needed; everything else is supplied.
- Experience: No prior bookbinding experience is necessary.
Secure your spot today to ensure you have a tangible piece of Iona to take home.
