The Exquisite Notes [Latin]

By Sylvia Ramos Alotta

The Exquisite Notes are the graduate school study notes of renown book artist and bookbinder Sylvia Ramos Alotta, as she was taught by various master-instructors at Columbia College Chicago's Interdisciplinary Arts MFA Book and Paper Arts Program. These very unique sketchbook instructional manuals (complete with detailed explanatory notes) visually document many facets of the art of bookbinding. They represent an overview that will guide the reader from the basics of folding paper sections and sewing them together, to creating a quarter-leather binding with raised cords! The Exquisite Notes are here published for the first time by Bookbinders Workshop.
