The Leatherwork courses provided by Neil MacGregor and Valerie Michael are based upon the techniques described in ‘The Leatherworking Handbook’ and our experience of over 35 years as designers/makers of hand stitched leathergoods. For 2010 we have introduced a couple of new courses in response to requests, and extended a few others.

Tetbury Leather Workshop
These practical courses (see course calendar) teach students how to make a wide range of leather items, including hand and shoulder bags, belts, boxes, flowers, dog collars and leads, wallets, purses etc, using vegetable tanned leathers. The techniques taught on the courses can help students develop their own individual styles and should enable them, to experiment and explore the creative potential of leather ! The leather courses take place in our own workshop so with a maximum of only 4 or 5 students per course, everyone receives individual tuition. A set of tools is provided for each student to use and a range of leathers, hand tools and other materials are available for students to buy. Patterns and course notes are provided for specialist courses and a ‘Suppliers List’ is given to students when they arrive. Lunch, morning and afternoon refreshments are provided within the course fees.
Daily session times are 9.00am – 5.30pm.
