Hello from Scotland

[Macrdhu]

Hi everyone,

Big hello from Scotland.

My name's Gillian and having recently discovered an interest in working leather it is great to find this forum.

I have some experience carving bone and am interested in finding out how I can combine this with leather, in bags to start I think, but that may be a bit in the future.

I've done a couple of small stitching projects and have begun my first tooling/carving project so when I get the chance to sort the tech of it I'll be posting some photo's for any tips.

I'm already gaining so much from the little I've looked at on the forum, it's great.

Thank you

G

Hi Gillian and welcome to a great forum. Any questions just ask someone will help. Where abouts in Scotland are you from? I'm in Perth.

G,

Welcome to LW; great place and great people. I'm told the coffee's good but you can't get a bridie here.

So much information available here that it can be overwhelming at times - but it's all good, useful stuff.

I'm in Mallaig so if you're ever passing by, call in for a coffee/tea and a smoked kipper. That goes for anyone else as well.
