Linda Koutsky

For more than 20 years, Linda has been a book designer for numerous publishers and authors. She has also hand bound her own sketchbooks, calendars, and photo albums using everything from expensive decorative papers, her own printed and designed papers, repurposed papers, miscellaneous fabrics, or whatever is lying around the house. Many of her handmade artist books are in the collections of the Minnesota Historical Society. She believes bookbinding should be fun, easy, and not too precious or intimidating for people to use on a regular basis.
