About this Event
Discover the art of leatherworking in an intimate and inspiring workshop held in my studio in Torquay. This hands-on experience is designed to guide you through the fundamentals of hand-stitching leather, whether you’re a complete beginner or someone looking to refine their skills.
In this session, we’ll explore not just the techniques of crafting but also the deeper themes of sustainability and mindfulness. Using reclaimed and ethically sourced leather, we’ll embrace the beauty of creating something unique with our hands while fostering a connection to the materials and the process itself.
The environment will be warm and welcoming, encouraging creativity and a sense of community as we work side by side. This workshop offers the perfect opportunity to slow down, immerse yourself in the art of craftsmanship, and leave with not just a finished piece but a new appreciation for the mindful act of making.
This workshop is designed to accommodate different skill levels, offering a range of projects to suit everyone. Beginners will start with crafting a simple pouch, perfect for learning the fundamentals of hand-stitching leather. For those with some experience, the intermediate level provides options to create a belt pouch, a pair of gauntlets, or a belt, allowing participants to expand their skills while working on more detailed and functional designs. Advanced participants can challenge themselves with the creation of a shoulder bag, a project that combines complex techniques and craftsmanship for a truly rewarding experience.
All tools and materials will be provided, and the workshop is open to all skill levels. Whether you're looking to try something new, hone a creative passion, or simply spend time in a supportive and inspiring space, this is your invitation to join us.
