As you plan your schedules for Gulf Wars, consider please two Al-Mahala
classes in your choices:

Thursday, from 10-noon, Class Tent A, Intro to Islamic Book Binding
This hands-on class covers the basics of constructing and covering an
Islamic envelope-flap-style binding, used across the Islamic world from
~900 AD to present times. We will create a book block, cover the book, and
learn some simple tooling embellishment (if we have time). Also included is
a brief overview of the history of Islamic book bindings. Some prior
experience is helpful, but not required.
Class fee: $15
Limit: 5 hands-on, unlimited observers
Ages 16+

Friday, from 1-3, Class Tent B, Islamic Book Binding Embellishment
This class will be an overview of Islamic bookbinding embellishment styles
in SCA period, from Mamluk Egyptian bindings to Mughal Indian bindings (and
everything in between). We'll talk about leatherwork, gilding, painting,
and cutwork. Builds on the Intro to Islamic Bookbinding class (bring your
book if you made one).
Class fee: none
Limit: None
Ages 16+

I am teaching both of these. If you aren't going to be at Gulf Wars but
would like a handout, send me an email and let me know! I don't have one
for the embellishment class, but am happy to chat about it with anyone.

Thank you all for your time!

In service,

THL Margavati Bai
