The Hole House Leather Handled Tote Bag - 25th July 2026 10-4:30m

Join Emma from Hole House Bags and Patterns to make the Leather Handled Tote Bag.  This is a smart, but simple, bag that is perfect if you are new to bag making. There are no tricky closures as the bag is open at the top.  It can be personalised with the addition of a buckle if you prefer.  There are options for inside pockets: either zipped, slip or both!

The pattern, interfacing, foam and hardware, including the leather handles are included in the class.  You will need to bring your own fabric but don’t forget you get a discount 10% in the shop if you buy the fabric from us. You will need to bring 0.5m for the exterior and 0.5m for the lining.  You can choose the colour of your handles and/or zip on the day of the workshop.

Machines and cutting mats are provided as part of the class are tea, coffee and biscuits! If you would prefer to use your own sewing machine, then please feel free to bring it.

All you’ll need to bring is your lunch and your usual sewing tool kit (thread, scissors, rotary cutter, ruler, pins/clips etc.) 

Parking is available close to the shop in the West Walls or Caldew Riverside car parks.  Please feel free to drop of your machine and sewing kit at the shop before parking in the public car parks. The spaces outside the shop are limited and only for short stay customers.

All workshops/classes must be pre-booked and paid for, either online - this can be done via the Superior Sewing Centre website - or in store at the point of sale by asking one of Superior Sewing Centre staff to help you.  

All workshops and classes must be paid for in full when booking.

We are sorry but sometimes we have to cancel a class due to circumstances beyond our control. If this arises we will aim to give you 14 days (two weeks) notice, however a full refund of the workshop/class fee will be given in any eventuality where we have to cancel a workshop/class. 

Superior Sewing Centre will not be held responsible for any other expenses in relation to a booking cancelled by Superior Sewing Centre.

No refund can be given if less than 14 days (two weeks) notice is given.

No transfer forward of workshop/classes is allowed should you not be able to attend your original booked date. If you do not attend your original booked class and have not provided 14 days (two weeks) notice, the fee will not be refunded and your place in a future workshop/class will only be secured by a fresh booking and payment of fee.
