PM sent Very sharp. Love the details!

Clean work! What publication?

Phenomenal work. Way to remember those that fought for our rights!

Very sharp!

Oh it happens. The method that works best for me is to make sure to let the dye dry for longer than you would think. A full day or so. Then, if hand stitching, I will use about an extra 2 feet of thread. The extra thread will pick up most of the dye when sending the needles through the holes, then you can cut off the excess when finished stitching. It isn't foolproof, but does minimize the dye on the stitching in the holes. Good luck.

Teaching a class of students of all ages is a blast when they are there to learn, not forced, but wanting to be there. It is a joy to see their eyes light up as they learn new things and even begin turning their imagination into something real on leather. Thanks for taking the time to teach the next generation of crafters.

That is super sharp. About time to get the bows out for hunting. Can't wait.

Always fun to see what you come up with. Very handy addition to the pocket!

Sharp design. Those 2 colors go well together.

Springfield Leather (SLC) is close by so I normally go there. When I don't want to make the drive, I order my needles from them and are delivered in several days.

Welcome to the forum from SW Missouri. It seems that the folks doing patches on hats prefer the Richardson brand of trucker hat. Model 112. Looks like they can be had for $6 and up.
