Prerequisites: We call this an intermediate level class, what does that mean? You need to have experience making and tinkering with things. Home sewing experience is a plus, but if you craft in other ways, your gonna do alright! Understanding how things go together and how to accomplish that is the key, wether its wood, metal or leather. Also, taking on a sewing project, especially with a timeline requires some physical and mental stamina.
