More about Autumn...
My name is Autumn McPeak and I have been in bookbinding since 2014. I have always been interested in wanting to know how things are made and work. That curiosity led me to learn bookbinding. I was hooked on furthering my knowledge once I learned the basics in my first class in 2014. Ultimately, I have learned that I keep at it because of my love of the process. I enjoy that I have a finished piece, but the most joy I get is making the books. I find great enjoyment and inspiration in the process, from cutting paper to sewing up the pages and covers. Finally, once the book is complete, I enjoy that my books have a second life. Now I’m here to share with you the art of bookbinding.
