Leather Crafter In The Washington Dc Area
shotgunwilllie replied to shotgunwilllie's topic in Leatherwork Conversation
Hi Art, I was hoping you would be interested lets hope som other will want to join us too! Bill -
I was wondering if leather crafters in the Washington D. C. area (including Northern Virginia and Maryland) have any interest in meeting up for a cup of coffee and conversation about leatherwork? Nothing formal, mind you maybe a opportunity to exchange ideas, trade skills and hints. I have been doing leatherwork for too many years to count (started out learning and buying supplies at the Tandy store in Landover Hills way back in 1974). And feel I still have plenty to learn from others and have some hints and skills I am willing to share too Best Bill
