I'm going to purchase a new cowboy and was wondering if you had your choice what sewing machine feet would you pick up what have you found to be the most handy in your work such as a piping foot or other random feet you found to be handy for leather

I normally do a paper pattern first to make sure everything works out right and then if I like the paper pattern I cthe trace the paper pattern on to those flimsy cutting mats that are made for your kitchen and then cut those out with a cheap pair of scissors they make a great pattern if you need something larger they make shelf liners you can buy on Amazon made out of the same material

Thanks the new airbrush came today

Thanks alot for your replys I own the coloring with Eco-flo book which has alot of good info in it but its hard to get your point across with some text and a few pictures on proper blending

I am looking for different techniques on dyeing leather I have seen some antique finishes that I would really liked to learn and I would love to learn how they fade the dye from light to dark evenly I have tried it in thw past and it looks blotchy and it doesn't look like a nice gradual Fade I'm looking to see if anybody has any tips or YouTube videos that they would suggest
