    My adult son and I took this class and loved it. We picked our leather, cut it and hand sewed the wallet. The instructor was patient and kind - I messed up quit a bit. We are taking the skateboard making class next week and will definitely take more classes there. The location is convenient and the shop is very nice inside. I highly recommend this business.
