This class at the Chicago School of Shoemaking focuses on the saddle-stitch technique, the most durable and traditional method of stitching leather by hand, applied to a small personal goods project such as a wallet, card holder, or key fob. Students learn to punch stitching holes, wax their thread, and execute the two-needle saddle stitch that professional leather artisans rely on for lasting results. All leather, thread, and tools are provided, and participants leave with a completed, functional item they stitched entirely from scratch.
