Coptic is a multiple-needle binding technique that creates a braid-like binding going up the spine of your book. When finished, the book will lay flat, making it the ideal book for sketching, journaling, or writing. This technique utilizes two separate hard covers, so it’s easy to create a yin-yang-type book using different designs on each cover. Students are encouraged to bring in their own materials for experimentation on their covers–anything that can be glued down is welcome (weaving, felt, paper, yarn, etc). Coptic is also a great binding for making large books (200+ pages). If you have the tool kit from a previous class, the cost is reduced by $30.
