University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign (UIUC)is pleased 
to offer a NEW Book Arts workshop this spring.

"Working with Leather: Exposed Sewn Binding" with Bea Nettles
Dates: March 4-5, 2006 9-4PM daily.

will be created by sewing with an exposed style stitch over 
cords or straps. No previous experience with working leather 
will be needed, but basic binding experience preferred.
