Stitching Course
Saturday 18th april 2026
1 Day Course
Level: Beginner – Intermediate
How good is your stitching? Is it good enough?
Think of your stitching like the frame of a beautiful painting.
When it is done well, it becomes part of the whole. But when done poorly, it stands out and becomes a distraction.
Good stitching is critical.
it is the one part of our build that can quickly let an item down. Equally, it can elevate beyond function alone.
It is not there to just hold your pieces of leather together, it is a statement, a demonstration of skill and in some cases, a signature.

You may not have seen the right course for you…
But this one could be it.

In short, we are going full geek when it comes to leather techniques.

Template Making Course
Saturday 13th June 2026
1 Day Course
Level: Beginner – Advanced
It is fair to say that templates are a foundational, if not a critical part of any build.
We all know this, but how many of us apply this to our work? Fail to prepare, prepare to fail!
Here in the workshop, you will learn that templates are an art form in themselves, after all, if you cannot make a good template, how can you be expected to make a good product?
On this course you will learn what is required to make a good template, what information you need to apply to it to make it effective, how it can help you with your stitching, hardware and symmetry.
Of all the courses run in the workshop, it is this one that will save you the most money, time and frustration.
