Thanks for the warm welcome.

Wow! I wish my rear end was that talented. Seriously nice workmanship. I'd be proud to wear that.

Beautiful work!

That is some beautiful craftsmanship.

Beautiful work!

Hello everyone, My name is Ron Hoobler and I got introduced to Leathercrafting when I was at the VA school for the blind in Tucson, AZ. My central vision is pretty well shot, but I get by all right with my peripheral vision. I don't know how well I'll be able to tool leather, but I don't seem to have a problem with marking and cutting out patterns, putting holes in and stitching it together, so we'll see how it all goes. I kinda screwed up my first hat. I'm not sure what I did, but when I had it almost all the way stitched together, there was about a 2 - 3 inch gap where the side of the hat was supposed to come together. I think I may have made the top a bit too big. LOL So now I get to unstitch it, and try to figure out where to properly place my stitching holes to make it come together right. We'll see how many times it takes until I get it right. HA! Once I finish it, I'll get my wife to photograph it and post the pic for you all to critique. Looking forward to learning as much as I can. I'm also planning a new sheath for my Ka-bar.
