My blog posts often serve as reminders of things I want to return to, and this is one of those… I’ve made lots of single sheet books, and even sell a kit of various designs that fit on 8-1/2×11 paper. But I was reminded the other day of the simplest single sheet book — the french fold. According to the description for a class given by Robert Walp later this month at Great River Arts Insitute in Vermont,
A French fold is a book printed on one side of a single sheet of paper. The printer must determine the proper orientation, or imposition, of each page so that when folded twice the sheet becomes a four page book with a cover, two inside pages, and a back. |

hey, i just did one of these (but the slightly more complicated version, with 8 pages instead of 4, and the slit cut in to open the whole thing up). here’s the link: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=24934230
