Leather Card Wallet (half day)

Description

Create a stylish leather card holder using traditional hand-stitch techniques. Quality materials in a choice of colours can be personalised with stamped initials or motifs if you wish. 

Join Laura from Tiska Leatherwork for this hands-on leathercraft workshop. Under Laura‘s expert guidance, you will follow traditional methods, focussing mostly on saddle stitching. You will work with beautiful, vegetable-tanned semi-aniline leather and choose from a range of thread colours.

“A really enjoyable workshop learning a new craft.”

This class can be booked along with our Leather Journal Workshop as a full day course.
