Leather is a durable, versatile material with a strong legacy in Wisconsin’s manufacturing history. In this class you will make a hand-stitched travelers notebook cover to take home, with two blank journal inserts included. The workshop will focus on saddle-stitching, a hand-stitching method done with two needles at each end of a length of thread. As threads pass over each other, each stitch locks in place. A broken stitch will not compromise the entire line of stitching, creating a long-lasting seam and allowing for easy, targeted repairs. Saddle stitching is a foundational skill for creating your own leathercraft, sewing heavy duty canvas and denim, and repairing leather items you own. In this workshop participants will learn the fundamentals of saddle stitching including using a stitching pony, determining thread length, backstitching, casting and finishing. Additional skills covered will be leather and thread selection, edge finishing, and personalization. This is a beginner level project with all materials provided; no experience required.
