Hey There,
Im like a year in, so pretty new also ) if you go to youtube, type in "watch strap pdf" a couple of videos down, there are a few tutorials that come along with the free pdf download you can use. I wouldnt use it for commercial purposes, maybe tweak it a little, but its good practice. For that matter, there are hundreds of free pdf´s you can download from youtube, Corter leather have some free templates, weaver leathercraft, make supply leather, all have some free templates you can use to practice .. hope this helps
