Good To Be Here

[4 Sweet Medicine]

Warm Greetings to you all!

Wow, there are people form all around the world here, nice. I am happy to finally get signed up as Life seems to keep me trying to make a living instead of doing my craft. I have dreams of creating a few really nice pieces of work but have decided I want to do most of the work with a machine. Currently, I am looking to purchase a good leather machine within the next 3-6 months so if you know of anyone that has one for sell.....let me know. Also, I am looking forward to working fur into my designs.

I have done small leather projects by hand but my little hands cant keep pace. Mainly, I design my own patterns and have made NA inspired shirts, corsets, jingle bags, tobacco pouches, drum bags, chaps, loom beadwork of bracelets, belts, hair barettes and misc. leather pouches. My dream is to custom make some pieces on a machine ~ so here I am amongst the best and the brightest leatherworkers for inspiration, knowledge, wisdom and info.

I look forward to meeting some of you and engaging my right brain soon.

~Peace

Welcome, Karen. It's nice to have you here. Please be sure to post some pictures of your projects... I'm a real fan of Native American styles, and would love to see some of your work.
