I'm heading to Toowoomba! Tinker Art Studio is graciously hosting me with my Japanese Stab Binding Workshop!
Workshop Details:
📅 Date: Thursday, 28th May 2026
⏰ Time: 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM
📍 Location: Tinker, 3/45 Stephen Street Toowoomba
Unwind and get a little crafty as we explore the timeless art of Japanese Stab Binding — a beautiful, centuries-old technique known for its decorative stitching.
In this hands-on workshop you’ll create two of your own handcrafted notebooks using handmade and recycled papers, decorative threads, and traditional stitching patterns. Along the way, you’ll learn how to cut and collate a textblock, create a protective spine, and work through classic decorative stitch styles that make each book as nice to look at as it is to use. You’ll also gain an introduction to the technical foundations behind bookbinding, giving you insight into how books of many styles are constructed.
You’ll be guided step-by-step through the entire process, from preparing your materials to completing your finished pieces - no previous stitching experience is required.
Perfect for beginners and creatives alike, this is a calm, satisfying workshop where you can slow down and get out of your head by working with your hands.
