My designs are mainly influenced by geometric shapes and Art Deco design. I've built up a wide range of skills and now have the luxury of time and space to make my own products and to experiment with techniques and styles. Ultimately though, I love passing on my passion for leather craft to other people by running a series of workshops. I cater for both individuals with 1 to 1 tuition and groups at my Essex studio or larger groups at other venues so email me if you'd like more information.
"My husband surprised me with a Full Day Leather Craft Workshop for our 3rd anniversary (because, well, leather - and I really enjoy making things by hand). We both absolutely loved it . We learned a ton of new skills, gleaned some fascinating information and came away with some (eventually!) rather professional looking handmade leather gifts for each other.
Rosanna is lovely. She’s a brilliant teacher, and went way out of her way to make sure all three of us on the course got out of it what we were individually looking for. She’s also very welcoming. I think we all felt relaxed and at home. The first part of the day was a bit intense (steep learning curve!) but the whole day was an absolute buzz. I can’t recommend it enough - whether you want to learn something new, or (like us) find a memorable way to spend your 3rd anniversary. "
"I attended a full day session. Rosanna was very good with her instructions and we had a number of options of items we wanted to make. I have managed to get my husband to put his glasses in a case - by making a lovely case for them! I also made a few other colourful items which was great to do in a day."
"What a brilliant course. I learned so much. Rosanna is a really chilled tutor and no question was too silly. There was huge selection of leather to choose from and I made 4 items during the day. I admit I was concerned about the hand stitching element but that was unfounded as we were shown the correct way to prepare the leather before sewing and as it turned out I found the process quite meditative.
I can definitely recommend this course."

"Thank you Trish! So glad you enjoyed it. Hope to see you again soon x"
"Had a wonderful day learning the basics of leathercraft. Was made very welcome and tuition was great, nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend this course and will be looking to book more advanced ones."
