Julie and her team welcome you to their workshop in Lyon to introduce you to the art of leatherworking. Create a one-of-a-kind bag sewn by your own hands and personalized to your liking.

Workshop itinerary (3.5 hours):

• Choose all the customization options for your bag: the color of the leather, the pocket, the scarf pattern, and the color of the hardware (gold or silver).
• Tracing, cutting, and attaching the hardware
• Learn the techniques for properly sewing your bag and wallet.
• Sewing stitch by stitch using a punch needle and an awl.
• You’ll leave with a bag you’ve made entirely by hand.

The featured model:

• The Rabat Bag (22.5 x 15 x 5 cm) 3.5 hours: one interior leather pocket—a chain shoulder strap—a removable pouch secured with snap buttons.

This workshop is perfect for all DIY enthusiasts and also makes a wonderful gift idea.
