About the Workshop:

This virtual workshop is taught by CBA instructor Iviva Olenick.

Participants in this workshop will learn how to use textile-specific materials to make several types of book covers and structures with fabric and paper. After watching the instructor demonstrate how to attach heavyweight fusible stabilizer to fabric or paper to craft a book cover, she will show how to attach lightweight fusible interfacing to paper or fabric to make the book's inner pages. She will then demonstrate how to stitch the cover and at least one inner page together using a variation of the pamphlet stitch and the whip stitch. Next, she will demonstrate how to embroider only the top layer of paper or fabric covering either heavyweight or lightweight interfacing, and how to embroider on both sides so that both sides are legible. Participants will then make sample book covers and inner pages incorporating these techniques. Finally, the instructor will demonstrate how to use quilt batting and hand stitching to create book covers and pages. Participants will experiment with these techniques, also applying skills and materials from the three previous Fiber Arts as Book Arts sessions, including naturally dyed fabrics from session 1, plant-printed and stamped paper and fabric from session 2, and embroidered paper and fabric from session 3. 

The three previous classes are not required but recommended.

This workshop is the final installment in a four part series which also covers natural dyeing, kitchen printing, and embroidery.


Required Materials:

  • Plain cotton muslin fabric
  • Hand embroidery needles
  • Scissors for threads and fabric
  • Heavyweight & lightweight fusible interfacing
  • Quilt batting
  • A selection of papers you would like to experiment wit
  • Optional: thimble & embroidery hoop

Good strong forks
Number of Items: 500
I was looking for some good, strong forks for our office breakroom. Strong enough for Texas BBQ or anything else we might throw at them. These forks can handle the job! The spoons and knives are also very good, and I also order our10 and 16 oz paper coffee cups and lids from Comfy Package. Good products at a good price - hard to find!

Very Sturdy Forks
Number of Items: 500
These forks are very sturdy and similar in quality to Dixie heavyweight forks. They are hard plastic, not maleable, so they hold up well to hot food and can be used to "cut" foods such as lasagna. Good product.

I've ordered two packs of these now for lunch. Over the course of 2 years. Works very well. Never had a fork break. Biggest complaint with other brands is I've had forks break.
