Hello!
I'm still pretty new to the world of leather crafting, and as such I have only ever worked with scrap leather and pieces from hobby shops. I've never bought leather online, and I would be very grateful if some of you could tell me places you've purchased leather from in the past with good results. As far as the kind of leather I want to buy, I mostly want tooling leather and garment/shoe leather (and later, as my skill grows, leather to make armor with).
I haven't got a "specialty" yet; I'm just looking to try out what I can, but I don't know where to get quality leather. (Someone suggested I try Tandy, but they only seem to sell whole hides and I would prefer to shop by square foot, if that's possible).
Thank you in advance for your thoughts and help -- I know there are a lot of experienced leather crafters on this site and I am very grateful for your willingness to help out the newbies.
Thanks!
