@jwwanzer.bsky.socialMy shift in research focus to #medievalstudies won't stop my work in #bookbinding or #woodworking it's just an adjustment. I am still working out the scheduling for research and projects. Shop work unexpectedly came to a grinding halt last week but should be resuming in a few days.
@bookhouse.ukThe Bookhouse Institute has updated its business plan and strategic roadmap for 2027 and beyond.

@agavinart.bsky.social#bookbinding #handmadebooks #handwovenfabric My friends in Sonora have invited me to teach a bookbinding workshop at the end of October. My friend Anne sent me her handwoven fabric for a cover. This is the yummy result.
@shane.d20.social.ap.brid.gyNone of the normal shops I look at have these in stock (in the UK).
… and this one is chock full of PVA that I’m having some bother clearing.
Does anyone know where I can find some more?
@papermushroom.bsky.socialBack in stock for Autumn! Mixed paper journals with colours inspired by the season.
@princegoatcheese.bsky.socialI'm making a new art journal. And by that, I mean I'm building it from scratch! So far, I have the signatures sewn together and mull glued to the spine. Now all it needs is a leather cover, end papers, and a ribbon bookmark. More pictures soon.

@revolutionarygold.bsky.socialI fear I a little bit fumbled ArtFight this year because July ended up being unexpectedly busy but this set of match notebooks I made for my Monday game party still charms me Infinitely

@blackoakbindery.bsky.socialCurious to hear people's thoughts: for handbound work, do you think a book needs to have a title on it?
For me, I think it's better to have it than not, but if it doesn't work with the design, it doesn't work. The box will have the title and author anyway.

@birdiesbindings.bsky.socialI've been a bit quiet lately because I've either been busy with things in life, or too busy binding to be able to capture/record anything.
The Little Makers Market is coming up on the 3rd October and these are a few things I'll have available. Still working on other bindings!
@jwwanzer.bsky.social2007 reprint Eric Gill's 2nd edition (1936) of the classic 1931 "An Essay on Typography" An excellent read for historians of printing and typography as well as those interested in the philosophical difference between commercial and artisanal printing.
@bronze-gear.bsky.socialmy latest bind, still got a lot of issues with the case (which you can probably see) but it's done

@wingtips.bsky.socialThe Book of Snobs, by Wm. Makepeace Thackeray. London 1869. Embossed, gold-stamped cloth with Thackeray’s monogram. If this were “digitized” for AI purposes, the covers, spine and artwork would be destroyed.
I prefer keeping real books to feeding the AI monster.
