Workshop Description: Are your ready to add some pizazz to your projects? One way to do that is with decorative braiding! In this class you will learn how to create two different decorative braids. These braids can be used in construction, as accents, or as the project itself. You will learn how to properly prepare the lace for braiding, punch the holes, determine how much lace you need, and how to set up and execute each technique. Please join me for this fun and interactive class. All skill levels are welcome. Kangaroo lace and leather are provided.

Materials to bring: Ruler, dividers, stylus, 3/32 lacing punches (4 and single prong), lacing needles, mallet, cutting board, punching board, saddle soap, and scissors.

Workshop Instructor: Sheryl’s interest in leathercraft started 1997 when she found a set of tools at a flea market. Those tools propelled her on a journey in leather she could not have imagined. Over the last 20+ years, she has had the privilege to study and learn different tooling techniques from several of the Masters.

In 2001, Sheryl began braiding leather, learning from the masters of the craft in both kangaroo and rawhide, and becoming skilled in round braiding, decorative braids, fine edge braiding, and knot work. In 2005, she started teaching tooling and braiding classes in Sheridan, Wyoming at the Rocky Mountain Leather Trade Show for both youth and adult students. In 2020, she became an Instructor for Elktracks Studio Creations. It has been an amazing experience.

Sheryl’s work has won numerous First Place, Best of Show, and Judges’ Choice awards at County Fairs, First and Second Placements at the World Leather Debut, and First Place, Best in Category, Best in Class, and Best of Division at the International Federation of Leather Guilds convention.
