Will do again!

I had initially contacted Simone with regards to making a pattern for a leather backpack. As a hobbyist, this was something that I had not yet attempted as I found it very daunting. Simone was incredibly knowledgeable and patient. She took the time to demonstrate each step, provide feedback on my technique, answer any questions that I had, as well as offered helpful tips and tricks for achieving professional-looking results. I felt comfortable and supported throughout the workshop and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in learning about leather working and/or furthering their craft.

Thank you so much for the review Ben. I am thrilled to hear that you had such a great experience during the private workshop. I look forward to seeing your backpack come together and to working with you again in the future.
