Participants will make a simple concertina book (10 x 10cm) designed for special text or images. Bring along your favourite short poem, prose, images or even a family recipe to be scribed onto the book.

The class will begin by learning to fold sheets of paper accurately. We will then make a mock-up of the book by arranging the text and/or images, before making the final piece. Finally, we will attach a cover. Morning tea and all materials will be supplied.
