sodbuster Report post Posted March 12, 2008 hi this Glenn from southern wi. Just found this site the other day I'm interested in any thing that has to do with leather. Right now I'm into embossing leather.I got most of the dvd that hidecrafters sell. I'm hoping to take a class from someone in the future. I would like some information on the show in Michigan City since I'm only about 3.5 to4 hours away. I plan on coming to the show to meet other people that do leather. I've been to the sherton show and love it.That all for now. I'm not that good with the computor so I got to get help from the wife a lot. Hope to hear from some soon.
