Maker's bio

During training at Cordwainers, London College of Fashion in 2010 I learnt how to design, make and manufacture bags professionally. Following a varied career in Accessories design and development across many roles and international brands I set up Hands of Tym in 2016. The courses I offer are suitable for all, from experienced to total novice. Come along to learn something new, and design and make your own leather bag in a day.

Chris Neville reviewed: 'Bag in a Day' Practical Leather Course - Rucksack/ Backpack

"Georgie, Thank you for a very enjoyable day making the rucksack. I learnt a lot about leatherwork, I even learnt to use a sewing machine. I found your design skills impressive, what seemed like a collection of bits of leather turned into a super rucksack. Your workshop is large and comfortable, with drinks and food a plenty. I do hope to visit you again. Once again, thank you. ChrisN"

"What an amazing day!!!! It was totally bespoke to meeting my needs, interests and level of understanding of the world of leather making. Georgie is a wonderful tutor who has a vast knowledge and understanding from transforming an idea into a design via a pattern into the desired product. She empowers you to learn at your own pace and the time just went too quickly - I will be back!!! Thank you Georgie for all the help, tips and extending my understanding of this fabulous new world of leather craft."

"I had another amazing day with Georgie creating another bag with some subtle changes to the pattern. The finished result is my best bag so far. I can't wait to book another one! Thank you Georgie. x"
