Class Level: Beginner
In this class, you will learn the basics needed to construct leather projects. We will be making an A6 journal that includes a 6 ring metal binder with screws and two packets of paper. Refills can be ordered online for the binder, or the binder can be removed and switched out to plain paper notebooks held with elastic (plain notebooks not included).
You will be able to choose from black, brown, pink, purple, aqua and mustard pre-cut cover (by me) with your choice of strap color and other embellishments that I will show you how to add on. We will also use a hand press to set the snap that will keep your journal cover closed. I will be showing you how to mark your leather, use stitching punches to make sewing holes, saddle stitching, ending/adding thread and finishing techniques that you can use on MANY future leather projects.
Kit Fee: None. The kit includes a leather cover and strap with snap, embellishments, 6 ring metal binder clip, 2 packs of A6 paper, all thread needed, two leather stitching needles.
Supplies: All supplies are included in the class fee.
Tools: Leather work requires MANY hand tools that can be shared in jewelry production, but there are also many that are unique to leather work. I will bring all needed tools for use in class.
