Chris, who has let us camp out in her house and workshop is also a shoemaker. So like us she works with leather, however she shuns electric sewing machines for 19th century treadle power instead.
Here's a couple of pictures of her make do work shop (till we go) and some of her lasted shoes drying out in the morning sun. Find out more at www.pilgrimshoes.co.uk

Stabo Moves House - Again
After 10 days of high exertion we have finally managed to move our house and workshop to Bedfordshire.
Our old work shop prior to clearing out
Moving our leather cutting machine
Our new house, or at least we have rented some of it off our friend Chris.
The new workshop

Thanks to those who helped us with the move. I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that we will probably have to do it all again in the new year.
