Recent reviews of Leather Card Holder Workshop

  • 5/5 from Olivia Fischer, attended Jun 2025: Emma was a very generous and helpful teacher, thank you for a great class!
  • 5/5 from Nurrul Johari, attended Jun 2025: Great workshop!
  • 5/5 from Angus, attended Mar 2025: If you are ready to learn, Emma is ready to teach! My parter and I attended a card holder class with no prior leather working experience. Emma made the class fun and easy to learn. A highlight was definitely hand stitching as you get the satisfaction of seeing the work come together. Would highly recommend for beginners as there is only light hand tool work. Hardest part is picking your colours!
  • 5/5 from Jaymie Bride, attended Mar 2025: So much fun. I will be coming back for sure!
  • 5/5 from Aleta Booth, attended Feb 2025: An excellent learher-crafting class, with a patient and knowledgeable teacher. My son & I were thrilled to have made something genuinely beautiful and long lasting.
  • 5/5 from Mark Blood, attended Jan 2025: Every beginner to leatherwork should at some point experience a class with Emma. She is well spoken and very patient who explains each step clearly. I wish I had experienced something like this when I started instead of watching tedious You Tube clips that lose a beginner anyway. Well done Emma and looking forward to doing another class soon!!!

  • 5/5 from Monica Murthy, attended May 2024: Emma was so patient with us and made the whole experience so much fun! We were a group of 3 and she was able to help each of us any step along the way. She explained each process clearly and went on to let us know how we could use these skills outside of the workshop. Highly recommend!
  • 5/5 from Nick Farley-Sutton, attended Jan 2024: Emma was great. I was lucky to be 1 on 1 but another 2 or 3 people would be fun. I had a great time. I’ve never worked with leather before. The work was interesting, varied and rewarding. I will definitely get some tools and start learning more. We made a handy card wallet. Very pleased with it. A very nice back yard work shop with A/C. I can absolutely recommend. Definitely value for money. Thanks Emma.
  • 5/5 from Samara Chalkett, attended Jan 2024: Emma is an amazing teacher and very knowledgeable. She guided us through every step with ease. Made everyone feel comfortable, and gave us easy remedies for any challenges we came across. There were plenty of materials to choose from, for us to customise our card holder. All in all great experience!
  • 5/5 from Linda Gordon, attended Jan 2024: Fabulous morning with Emma, a wonderful teacher a lovely, knowledgeable lady. We were both inspired to do more leather work. Thank you
  • 5/5 from Balaji Alagu, attended Nov 2023: Emma was a great teacher. It’s a small group class and she had all the necessary equipment and guided me through making my leather cuts, stitches and explained rationales as to why we do or don’t do certain things. She has got plenty of experience to trouble shoot hiccups I ran into, and gave excellent tips. I enjoyed her guidance regarding essential tools to get into the hobby, eliminating the need for expensive tools at the beginning. Overall great class, really enjoyed it

Hi, I am Emma, a leatherworker with many years of experience of crafting. I was taught by my beautiful mother at an early age how to sew and knit, the passion for handcrafts she sparked in me has continued to this day.
Leather is such an interesting material to work with, possibilities are almost endless as to what you can create, and I am always finding new avenues to explore.
I love teaching people how to create their very own leather items. I get such enjoyment seeing someone learn a new skill, and walk away from my workshops with not only a completed product but also with the confidence and knowledge to explore this craft on their own.
