Dwight Report post Posted November 28, 2023 At 79 yrs . . . I've kinda given up on basket weave and it's associated brethren . . . just cannot get the knack. I do beat on leather occasionally . . . (some call it stamping . . . lol ) . . . and I've never really acquired that knack either . . . but so far I haven't had any super complaints. But then again . . . I'm kind of dressing for an audience of simple expectations. Anyway . . . braver than I am . . . for sure . . . the originator. May God bless, Dwight Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
