A bag with a difference!

Andy Bates, who makes bespoke, hand-stitched leathergoods, works of art and historical reconstructions using traditionally produced leather, was a guest entrepreneur at our recent masterclass at The Alnwick Garden. He spoke about the variety of work he undertakes, including leathercraft workshops, and unveiled the bag below which he made as a commission for Grayson Perry, the Turner Prize winning potter.
