"WORKING WITH LEATHER, FEARLESSLY" will be held on Saturday, October
26th from 12: to 4: pm.
The cost is $50 + $10 materials fee. Bring your own leather.
(I hope some of you know good sources for leather locally. Since I'm
relatively new to this area, I'll have to rely on your help with
this.) Send me your check NOW to reserve your place in the class.
1505 Buckskin Dr., Santa Maria CA 93454.

"JAPANESE RECHOSO BINDING" workshop will be held on Saturday, November
  9th from 12: to 4: at my studio in Santa Maria. It will be $50.

This structure is the only truly Japanese
  binding I know of (the rest are taken from Chinese bindings). However,
  it looks very Western!. It opens quite flat and is NOT side stab. A
  good binding to know.
  WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: Preparation and sewing sequence. Covering and
  finishing this interesting binding.
__________________________________________________________________
__________________________________________________________________

  I'm re-posting the rest of the list of workshops in case someone
missed it:


"1-2-3" - One, two and three section structures. Most everyone knows
  how to manage a single section, but adding a hard cover may be a new
  problem. Then what is an easy solution to the 2 section book? Three
  sections are too few to sew in the traditional style - so.....
  WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: Case bind 1 and 2 section books and a special 3
  section structure.
  _________________________________
  "SINGLE PAGE FOLD STRUCTURES" - Book pages that are made from multiple
  folds of one sheet of paper can be combined with added elements to
  make a whole book. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: Various page folds plus
  additions and fold-outs. How to plan and layout your text printing.
  _________________________________

  "TRADITIONAL 4+ SECTION SPINE SEWING VARIATIONS" - There are a number
  of ways of sewing a multiple section book together whether for a flat
  back spine or rounded spine. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: Preparation of the
  text block and some sewing variations for different spine effects.
  ________________________________________
  "ECCENTRIC ACCORDION VARIATIONS" - Accordion structures allow lots of
  leeway for adding variety to a book as length of text, separate text
  sections, fold-outs etc.
  WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: Some wild accordion variations.
  ______________________________________
"ECCENTRIC SIDE-STAB STRUCTURES" - There are many uses for the side
  stab book - journals, ledgers, single sheet bindings etc. This
  traditional Japanese/Chinese style has much to offer. WHAT YOU WILL
LEARN: Soft and hard cover Western variations to the side stab
  structure.
  _____________________________________
"CAOUTCHOUC!" Gesundheidt. Thank you. It's a wonderful French word
that simply means "perfect binding" to us. And THAT means binding
single sheets along a spine. This structure solves many problems when
a folded section is not available for some reason. WHAT YOU WILL
LEARN: Binding securely single sheets into a text block and casing in.
  ____________________________________
  "SLIP CASE VARIATIONS" - Some book structures, like the energetic
  accordion, need gentle containment. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: Part and
whole slip case building for books that don't necessarily need to be
fully boxed. A decorative addition to display a book.
  ___________________________________
  "POCKET BOOKS" - Structures that allow added materials - separate
pages of text, graphics, pictures, mementos etc. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN:
Various ways to make frames, pockets and hiding places for inclusions
in a book.
_____________________________________
"FAUX COPTIC" - A simpler and quicker look-alike of the traditional
  Coptic spine sewing. WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: The sequence and sewing of
this interesting and useful structure.
  __________________________________
  "DELUXE TRAVEL JOURNAL" - The carry-all journal that gives you room
  for everything you want to remember on your trips. WHAT YOU WILL
  LEARN: Construct a pocketed and layered book for maps, pictures,
_____________________________________________________________

"WORKING WITH LEATHER - FEARLESSLY" - Many people are too cautious to
  tackle leather for their bindings. In reality, leather is one of the
  most forgiving materials to work with, and it offers a long list of
  treatments for various effects.
  WHAT YOU WILL LEARN: To score, shape, cut, carve, onlay, inlay,
slice, emboss, stamp, dye, sculpt, fold and LOVE leather.
____________________________________________________________________

Let me know what you think. I know Santa Maria seems like the end of
the world, but it's only 58 minutes from Santa Barbara.

See you soon!

I.m taking the week off to catch up on work.... and made the mistake of
starting some paste paper. haven't opened the laptop till just now, and it's
to aske about the ironing step. I am having the hardest time returning them
to their smooth stage. I saw some of the paper that Sharron and Joyce had as
examples, so I know it can be done. but how? just time and elbow grease? I
have even used the steam setting, which helps a bit but not much. Help?

>What a delicious time we had with Joyce and Sharron.  Paste papers seem
almost edible, and everything looked so beautiful in the light of Joyce's
beach house.  I do hope we can do it again, for those who came and those who
wish they could have.  Thank you Joyce and Sharron for a great afternoon.

with this:
>
>October 19th will be at Jill's studio (435 E. Pedregosa, 898-9260).  We
will have a swap meet and begin the book Pat is masterminding.  For the
former bring papers, books, rubber stamps, toys, or anything that you are
ready to part with.  I am making packets of collage material and I keep
finding other things to throw in the give away box.  For the latter, bring
two different kinds of information: resources you have used and like (bring
their address, emails, phone #'s etc. as we will be putting this in a book)
and tips you have found useful.  Pat will collect and print this information
after we have generated it over the next few months. If you can't come in
person you can email her with your resources and tips.  Eventually we will
have a bookbinding party and make a dos-a-dos book out of all this wonderful
info.  To make life really easy for Pat, put your information on 3x5 cards.
If you have catalogues or other printed material from places you like this
would be a great time to share them.

not sure of the place.  Lisa had agreed to lead this one as she knows this

>
>December.  Since the third Saturday is so close to Christmas we were going
to cancel the meeting.  But then I thought to ask if anyone wanted to add
their work to an ornament show I am having in my gallery on Dec. 8th.  I am
working with artists in other disciplines and hadn't thought of book
artist's but when I did I realized how perfect little books and various
origami pieces would fit this theme.  So if you want to make things and sell
them Dec. 8th have them to me by Dec. 7th when we hang the show.  And if you
want to bring food to share on the 8th I'm sure it will be a party all day.

Inez--I just iron the pages flat on a breadboard, stack them one on top of the
other, and press with a baking sheet with a cast iron pot on top!  Once the
pages are cold and have been pressed, they remain flat.  I found that using the
fabric covered ironing board was more difficult than when I use just the
breadboard, uncovered.

Joyce

Thanks. i'll try that tomorrow (got to do SOME work tonight)
see what you started?

Ines...I can't get my paper as smooth as sharon and Joyce, either.   I did
use a steam iron and it helps a lot but maybe pressing it in a book or under
a pile of books with heavy rocks on them will give the look you want.

Hi All!

November 16th will be a
bring-your-project-and-work-on-it meeting. We need a
place. I've agreed to facilitate this one, as this is
a busy time for making holiday gifts, and I need all
the time I can get to be ready for the holidays! I am
happy to set-up & clean-up the space. If weather
permits, we can use Jill's studio, but she'll be
out-of-town, as will Virginia...

Jill will make an announcement at this coming meeting
too, but if someone can spare a room, we'd be
grateful!

In Deep Appreciation,
Lisa (AKA. artboox)

Thank you Gianna, Sara & Ines! Let us know about the

me to stay around town. And Ines, I'll give as much

is better...

O.K., I've reserved the rec room for Nov l6th; that's good for a few weeks
but I will
need confirmation about whether or not we deciide to use it.  If we do not
want it, I need to make it
available to others.

Helping you all decide is the fact that a $l00.00 deposit is required as well
as a l5.00 fee.   I will pay the fee....no problem...but I would like people
to chip in for the l00.00 deposit.  It's for spilled paint, etc and is
ENTIRELY REFUNDABLE if the room is not damaged.  I use it a lot and NEVER
have
a problem but I have never painted down there. d I suggest everyone make out
a check for 5.00 which can be returned at the end of the meeting
if things are fine.  Sorry to appear so petty but I don't want to front that
myself.

So that;s the deal with the rec room, which is in Carpinteria.  It's a great
room with long tables and a kitchen but it is not an art room, per se so we
have to watch it with cutting, paint, etc.    Wanted you to know the worst so
you can make informed decision.

Hi Lisa,

Oops! I will be at the Painted Monkey Conference in Irvine the weekend of

Konichiwa everyone!
Yesterday I visited the Origami Kaikan and met with an
origami master who taught me some cool folds. He is
going to collaborate with me on some origami
instruction books. Very exciting!
Today I am going to Okinawa by train to meet with our
export division and then hopefully some more shopping.
Yesterday I shopped at my favorite place called Tokyu
Hands and found those wonderful tiny peg alphabet
stamps. The font is about 9 point. So cute! I picked
up an extra set for someone who really, really wants
one. I suppose I can auction it? :-)
Anyway, I am functioning on very little sleep since my
body clock is still in Santa Barbara.
Take care and I will see you all when I get back!

Karen
