She is very knowledgeable in her craft and imparts this knowledge along with instructions in a clear and unrushed manner so that every stage is easy to follow and enjoyable. The workshop venue is well equipped with everything you need prepared and accessible and lunch was just delicious. I can highly recommend the bag in a day course and am thrilled with my lovely bag. Thank you Georgie!"

Sheila Gillies reviewed: 'Bag in a Day' Practical Leather Course - Mini Bucket bag

"I made a small bucket bag in a day!! It was such fun. I went with my sister and a friend a couple of weeks before lockdown. Georgie was brilliant at explaining and demonstrating all the processes and skills needed, step by step. She was consistently positive with both patience and understanding, even when I went beyond the end time. The biggest decide I had t make was which colour leather to choose! Georgie provided an excellent lunch , drinks and cake So there was no preparation needed for us. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone."

"Thank you Sheila it was so lovely having you all! Georgie xxx"

Suki Baynton reviewed: DIY Leather Bag Kit - Cross Body Satchel to make at home

"I bought this kit from Georgie having had no experience at all of leather work and I wasn’t sure how good I would be but I needn’t have worried. Georgie was so helpful before I even bought it, helped me pick the colours, discussed what would fit in there (as I wanted to use it for my camera) and even sent me photos, she really goes above and beyond! When the kit arrived it was beautifully packaged, really high quality materials inside and lovely clear instructions and video links for all the tricky bits. I absolutely LOVED making this kit and my finished bag is beyond gorgeous and I never imagined I would be able to make something like this at home. I probably wouldn’t have been able to do one of Georgie’s classes due to distance so this has been the best option for me and I would recommend it to anyone!"

Hands of Tym responded:

"I am so pleased to read this :) thank you for your lovely kind words! The bag looked stunning and I hope it has sparked of a LOVE of bag making as it is wonderful G xxx"

Anne Jury reviewed: 'Bag in a Day' Practical Leather Course - Mini Bucket bag

"I made a gorgeous top quality grey tote bag with Georgie's superb guidance a couple of weeks ago. Her calm, reassuring manner made for a relaxing, in the totally absorbed for 6 hours kind of way, day where I also met some amazing women. I love my bag and will definitely do another day. I can't recommend it enough for anyone who's 'crafty' enough to have a go at anything. I think both experienced sewers and beginners would both enjoy this day."

Debbie Lait reviewed: 'Bag in a Day' Practical Leather Course - Mini Bucket bag

"Had a really lovely and creative day. I'm not usually famed for my practical skills but Georgie gave me the confidence and expertise to complete all the stages necessary to produce a good quality bag from really high quality materials. Really enjoyed completing this with my daughter who made a beautiful bucket bag that she uses all the time. Love my tote bag which will accompany me on numerous trips. Hoping to repeat the experience and make a bucket bag next time."

Jane Rushby reviewed: 'Bag in a Day' Practical Leather Course - Mini Bucket bag

"I had such a lovely time on this course. The choice of materials to make the bag from was fabulous, it was hard to choose, but I was very happy with my green/red combo. Georgie is a creative, knowledgeable and very kind and friendly teacher. It was quite hard work, learning to use the tools and machines, and Georgie was on hand to help us along and we had plenty of 1:1 attention from her. My bag is fabulous, I’ve been using it daily for work and have it on holiday with me now. I’ll be doing another course this year for sure! The course was held in a lovely workshop space, and we had delicious refreshments and lunch. Thank you Georgie ?"

Hands of Tym responded:

"Thank you! It was such a great day with you all :) Your green bag is great - I want one! Enjoy using it and please share a pics! Gxxx"

Tila reviewed: 'Bag in a Day' Practical Leather Course - Mini Bucket bag

"I had a brilliant time making a bag. I didn’t know I could produce such a professional product without previous experience. The instructor was very clear and helpful, yet there was plenty of room to personalise my bag. The day just flowed very naturally and easily yet it was packed full of creative information about the trade. I highly recommend it. Beautiful experience all together."

Sarah Bru reviewed: 'Bag in a Day' Practical Leather Course - Mini Bucket bag

"I did this course a few months ago and I absolutely loved it. Georgie's guidance is warm and accurate and takes you through all the steps to make your bag. You are given plenty of room to apply your creativity and personality which I really enjoyed. I more than recommend this course if you want to learn about leather and would do it again without hesitation. Thank you Georgie!"
