This 2 hour work shop will introduce you to hand sewing leather also known as saddle stitching. We stock a huge selection of beautiful Italian hides sourced from the top tanneries in Italy
Saddle stitching is a traditional hand-sewing technique used to join leather pieces with exceptional strength and durability: two needles are passed through each hole from opposite sides, creating a locked stitch that resists unravelling even if a single thread breaks. It produces a clean, symmetrical row of stitches visible on both sides of the seam, and allows precise tension control for a flat, professional finish. Commonly done with waxed linen or polyester thread and a pricking iron or chisel to mark holes, saddle stitching is favoured in high-quality leather goods for its longevity and aesthetic appeal.
Booking essential as spaces are limited.
You will have the opportunity to practice your new saddle stitching skills to create a small but beautiful Italian leather purse with a fastening
The cost of the workshop includes tuition, a choice from a selection of leather as well as a hot drink and biscuit
The shop will be open as normal whilst this workshop is running
