Leatherworking Skills & Techniques Workshop

Take your leathercraft skills to the next level with our hands-on Leathercraft Skills Workshop. Unlike our project-based classes, this workshop is focused entirely on teaching the core leather working techniques and knowledge.

Throughout the session, you'll learn about different types of leather, how to choose the right leather for your project, and master a range of essential leatherworking techniques.

What you'll learn:

  • Saddle stitching from start to finish using a stitching pony
  • Preparing leather for stitching, including gluing and marking stitch lines
  • Pricking and stitching techniques for clean, professional results
  • Edge finishing, beveling and burnishing
  • Cutting accurate straight lines and smooth curves
  • Understanding different leather types and selecting the right one for your projects
  • Safe and effective use of common leatherworking tools

No experience is necessary, and there's no need to bring anything. We'll provide all the tools, materials, and guidance you need.
