Instructor: Erin Jordan is good with a needle and thread. While she isn't opposed to staples, she wants to offer binding options for zines and other hand made projects. She has been perfecting her teaching skills at ZAPP for all age ranges. Her binding class has become one of her favorite workshops. Between traveling and working, Erin is one of the key volunteers that keep ZAPP going. Her latest favorite zine is "A Field Guide to Star Trek: Next Generation" by Joshua Chapman.
