I had a brilliant two days at the London Leather workshop, being taught by Sara. Her teaching was excellent, the resources and materials were first rate and the atmosphere was really welcoming. I am delighted with the bag I made and will definitely be returning for more. I would warmly recommend the workshop to anyone interested in learning about leather craft.

I recently attended the 2-day Learn Professional Leather Craft Skills, Leather Sewing and Construction Techniques course. It was an amazing experience. Sara was our instructor and she explained each step clearly, making it really easy to follow along. I loved that the class was very hands-on, and I came away with new skills and a finished piece I’m really proud of. The atmosphere was friendly, supportive, and fun, which made learning even more enjoyable. I’d highly recommend this workshop to anyone curious about leathercraft or looking to try something new and creative!

Sara was our primary instructor for the Leathercraft skills course and it was an excellent experience. She explained all concepts clearly for beginners, and helped us build practical skills. She is a great instructor, patient and knowledgeable, and she shares tidbits and lessons from her years as a leather crafts expert. I am now excited to take another class and learn more about working with leather!
