Very well done and I like the "Thank You Leather" idea. Doc in TX

Thanks for the reply Dave.......

Thanks for the kind welcomes and yes, the mosquitos are every bit as big as you remember........that's why we can't have turkey farms here, the mosquitos will cross breed with them......I live near the Trinity river and fished it many times when I was in college.....lots of fish, snakes, and aligators......seems like everything in Texas either bites, sticks, or stings........as for the girls with two names, their still here and doing well (Betsy Bob, Kali Jo, etc.)........I lived in South Fork, Colorado for a few years and always enjoyed going to New Mexico for our shopping and sight seeing, it was much closer than traveling to Colorado Springs or Denver.......I also enjoy blues music and playing guitar........Looking forward learning and sharing here........

Hi all, I was extremely inspired when I found this site. I have been a lurker for a while but only recently become a member. I live in SE Texas and have not been involved in leather art for over 25 years due to time constraints. Now that I have more time I have unpacked all of my old tools and stamps and I am looking forward to re-introducing myself to an art that I enjoyed so much in my early twenties. At that time I made a few holsters and gun belts for family members. I am still interested in holsters and gun belts but find that now, in my early fifties, my interests are much more varied and include everything from chaps to bible covers. I aspire to learn how to carve and stitch much better so that I can expand my skills for a wide variety of projects. It is my hope that at some point in the future I will become an artisan and able offer my work to the general public. I look forward to learning from the great artisans on this site and aspire to produce such beauty and quality. Also, I have observed that their is currently an active member named Doc, so I will yield to him and sign my posts as, Doc in TX
