Workshop Description: Wayne Hape will use what he’s learned from years of saddle making with father, Chester Hape, and on his own in his shop to teach you how to prepare thread and materials for precise hand sewing. Using a hand awl and needles you’ll master efficiency and perfection for both flat work and box stitching. This workshop will focus on mastering techniques rather than finishing a project.
Materials to bring: Stitching horse or table mount holder, sewing awl, knife, groove gauge, stitch wheel, stitching wax. Wayne will supply needles and thread and have extra tools to share.
Workshop Instructor: Wayne Hape is an accomplished saddlemaker who lives with his wife and son in Sheridan, Wyoming. Wayne had the great fortune to grow up in a family deeply rooted in ranching. Aside from saddlemaking, he also enjoys carving leather for the sake of its artistic appeal. Wayne has carved two covers for the Leather Crafters & Saddlers Journal, has won blue ribbons in the World Leather Debut as well as judged it, and enjoys playing the mandolin and other stringed instruments.
