    • You are welcome, Abbie. I taught book making at the college where I worked. It was such fun for the students to learn how to make a book from scratch. It was remarkable how beautiful they all were able to create this art form.
      I loved teaching students how to be successful in their work and how to excel in every form they tried.

    • I taught book making at the college. It was such a fun course to teach and we made every sort of book imaginable. They learned to do a variety of bindings, and use many different kinds of paper.
