RSSBrian Sawyer
Brian Sawyer is a crafter, editor of craft books, and occasional craft writer (previously serving as contributing editor for Craft magazine). When he's not under the hood of a paid project or working pro bono for his wife, he can often be found fiddling with books in some other capacity, either hand binding, writing about bookbinding, altering books, experimenting with layout, reviewing for his personal blog, or just plain reading to his son.
