Class Description

Description

This comprehensive workshop introduces you to all the core concepts of leathercraft, including measuring, cutting, gluing, punching, saddle stitching, and professional edge finishing. Each of these fundamental techniques can be applied to countless future leathercraft projects you'll want to create.

Leatherworking has ancient roots, with the earliest confirmed leatherworking tools dating back to 5,000 BC during the Stone Age.
