Come along to Bad Girl Bakery and learn how to make a leather cross-body bag with Fife based designer Jude Gove.
Using soft leather and pure wool felt, Jude will take you through all aspects of making your bag. Choose your leather, cut out your design and stitch it all together using simple hand sewing techniques.
Perfect for beginners and seasoned crafters, Jude will guide you through the step by step process of creating your bag, explaining techniques and passing on tips and tricks along the way.
All materials, hot and cold drinks and a sweet treat are provided, but please bring along a packed lunch.
Working from her home studio, Jude creates individually designed and handcrafted genuine leather and pure wool felt accessories. Each purse, clutch bag and wallet is cut and stitched by hand, with an emphasis on simple practical shapes, exquisite colour combinations and high-quality materials.
Using the landscape from both home and her travels as her colour palette, she sources genuine soft leather hides and pure wool felt in contrasting colours. Jude works entirely by hand – from making patterns, to cutting the leather and stitching each piece together.
Her aim is to create simple and functional yet beautiful products, which will last a lifetime.
