    The class was fun and the clutches turned out great, but I think it could have been paced a bit better so that we had more time at the end to decorate our clutches.

    Paige and Madison were both amazing. So cool and very patient. They even helped me perfect an imperfection when I made a small boo-boo while stamping my clutch. Actually, im glad it happened because the clutch ended up better than when I started! Highly recommend this class!

    I really enjoyed the class. Paige, the teacher, was very generous with her knowledge and time, staying a bit late to help a couple of us who hadn't quite finished. I keep looking at the clutch I made and can't quite believe I made it!

Questions & Answers (4)

Question from Divya M.
Is there an option for using faux leather?
Answer from Brenda L. CourseHorse StaffCourseHorse Staff
Hi Divya! Typically, the clutch class only uses real leather. Real leather gives the clutch some stiffness and makes for a more sturdy end product. However, they DO have faux leather options on hand (from the other leather workshops), but they're not as stiff as the real leather, so the final product lacks structure! More like a pouch than a clutch. The bottom line, it's possible to make a clutch with faux leather in our class, but not what they recommended.

Question from elaine g.
Does the clutch include a wrist strap?
Answer from Kristle C. CourseHorse StaffCourseHorse Staff
Great question - the current pattern/design does not have a wrist strap. However, the front flap of the pattern provided to the students can be modified slightly, and the JamMaster will be able to assist them with utilizing scrap to add a wrist strap. The JamMaster also has some other tips for styling it as a shoulder bag.
Answer from Amanda P. Verified Student
No, it does not. BUT I'm willing to bet the instructors would consider your request if it was at all possible. You should definitely email them and see if it's possible!
Answer from Lisa J. Verified Student
When I took the class, the instructor was very helpful in walking me through adding tabs, to which I later added a chain I bought, to make it into a shoulder bag.
