Would you like to learn one of the oldest recorded human crafts?

Leatherworking relies on core hand-skills such as cutting, casing, skiving, hand-stitching, burnishing, stamping, and tooling. This session with Mick from MAD Crafts will introduce you to some of those skills.

By the end of the class you'll have a drawstring pouch to take home (it could be the start of your Christmas giftsπŸ˜‰)
