LWL-T107: Make a Leather Sheath from Scratch

Make a Leather Sheath from Scratch

In this class we will explore making a sheath for a knife or other sharp object. We will go over how to create a pattern based on your item, what a "welt" is, when to use rivets and when to use stitches. Please bring a knife or other item to create a sheath for, if you have one. Otherwise you will make a generic shaped sheath instead.

All tools, leather, and supplies will be provided other than the knife or item to put in the sheath.

Prerequisites: This class can be taken as a beginner and all skills will be discussed and taught.

The class will meet in the Main Room at the Leesburg location unless otherwise specified.
