    Starting and Maintaining a Leather Guild

    by Johanna

    How to start a guild Sample bylaws for a guild Operating policies and procedures This information was graciously provided by Ernie Wayman, who is retiring as president of the International Federation of Leathercraft Guilds (IFoLG) this year.

Last February I sold off half of my leather shop and moved to South America for a while to live and work with the gauchos here and learn their style of leatherwork with a focus on their approach to rawhide and leather braiding.
