Designer Bags and Handbags

UPDATED 20160720 09:45:00

Bags and handbags have been the big fashion statement for some time and this looks set to continue. This course will give you the skills to make your own bags and accessories from a wide range of materials, including soft leather and suede, to a high degree of professional skill and finish. You will be able to use purchased patterns, which you can adapt if you wish, or to develop your own designs and patterns to produce unique pieces. If you are a returning student, you will be able to continue with your projects. No previous experience of the subject is necessary but you must be competent on the sewing machine to benefit from this course.
