"I attended a one-to-one workshop with Fenner in September to learn about basic leatherworking skills. Fenner was a really good tutor, taking things at my pace, explaining and demonstrating things clearly. I learnt a lot and had some support resources to take away with me. I would recommend Fenner’s course to anyone who is serious about learning how to work leather."
