Tote your tools in style in a sturdy, hand-sewn leather tool tote. This open-top hold-all is perfect for anything from carving tools to knitting supplies. In this course, students will learn foundational skills that can be applied to future projects. We will use the traditional two-needle saddle stitch and hand tools to make a beautiful case that will last for years. This is a relaxing, machine-free way to construct objects of great beauty and integrity. Natural vegetable-tanned leather starts out a soft buff color, but will darken to rich toffee hue as it lives with you. No prior sewing experience is necessary, but this class will require good hand dexterity. Bring your reading glasses if you need them! If time allows, other small items can be made for an additional material fee.
