roundmath606 Report post Posted November 25, 2014 Hi, everyone. I am a leatherworker out of necessity, and sort of worked my way into the craft by accident. I was between jobs during Christmas one year, and had a piece of leather and some tools and tons of time...and no money, so I made all my Christmas presents one year by hand and was pretty pleased with the efforts. I am still learning as I go, and would love to spend more time working with my leather...it is very rewarding to me, but I am spending a lot of time on the road lately and not able to get settled in and get to work...I hope to network some and maybe meet some people who can teach me a thing or two along the way. I also hope to start making the trade shows and craft group meetings in my area. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kwelna Report post Posted December 17, 2014 I have noticed that a lot of us started due to need, a lack of money, a few scraps of leather and a few tools. In most cases we produced something that we needed. From there we added a bit of ornimentation\tooling and then BAM addiction.........I am pretty sure that veg tan leather is the gatway drug to this affliction...Welcome Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
