These fine little clutch bags were the results of our two day introduction to leather working course this week taught by Mike Reid from @handcraftedleather.co.uk
Yesterday our four students were introduced to the structure and qualities of leather, safe use of tools, design, laying and cutting of a pattern, edging, burnishing and dyeing on leather.
Today was all about assembly and stitching... it was almost meditative in the workshop today as our four students learned how to saddle stitch. Three small leather clutch bags and a fine sporran left the workshop this evening. Modelling shots to follow...
