Leather work from scratch newby

[Heafty turnip]

I’m new to this forum, have tanned a few hides and am just about to learn sewing. 

My dream is to build something out of leather from scratch. This includes harvesting the animal right through to sewing what ever I end up making. 
I thought joining up here could help me on my journey, well it has already!

So far, I’ve chrome tanned at least a dozen wallabies, A Fallow deer and a feral cat. I have also experimented with alum tanning 2 cows. And these worked out ok.

Just recently I have purchased a 2nd hand singer 132k6 which I have just rebuilt and have managed to get it to work. 
I have limited sewing experience but definitely have the passion and patience to figure it all out.

Well that’s who I am and why I’m here! Thanks for having me.
