Naomi's story
I gained an understanding of how to produce pieces entirely by hand, from design and pattern-cutting to the whole making process. I can now apply these skills to other items such as shoes, bags, and fashion accessories.Naomi studied saddlery and bridle making before becoming one of the first students to study our shoemaking course.
