Description

We are re-opening this class by popular demand.

The bag making course includes tuition and all the materials needed to make your bag. Leathers will be available to choose from on the day. No experience necessary.

**Class time may extend up to an additional hour if there are many enrollments, so please do not book bus or train tickets immediately after the scheduled end time of class. 

**Disclaimer: We used to offer a class that was integrated with backpack making but the time wasn’t sufficient for both types of classes in one, so we will only focus on tote bags for this class.
