The Handmade Book: An Introduction
Reviewed by Polina on 8/2/2012
I liked the class. I kind of wished we learned one more technique. Something more complicated. The Japanese stitch was complicated and I really liked it but I wish there was something else. But otherwise I learned a lot and it was really interesting.
