sapphire Report post Posted March 19, 2010 Hi! I just happened to luck into finding this forum on a search to help someone else discover what kind of treasure they have found. Many years ago my mother took up the 'hobby' of leather work and not only made items for herself but also other family members, friends and items to sell to raise money for her favourite causes. Myself, I never got beyond making a belt for my own use.......teenage years got in the way and the rest is history. I have never lost my love for leather, finding myself drawn to (and collecting) hand tooled personal items. Lots of years helping to clean and maintain harnesses instilled in me the appreciation for craftsmanship and attention to detail and comfort. While finding this site was an accident, I hope to continue visiting and now that my (and my children's) teenage years are far behind being able to finally turn to working with such a beautiful and natural medium. I'll now pop over to the History section and post a pic of an article a fellow 'nother forum member is trying to identify....... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
