Misfits Report post Posted January 21, 2008 I am returning to a hobby I had when I was 12. I was taught how to tool in Northern Arizona by a Navajo man who did some of the best work I have ever seen...This was 40 years ago, now I am back to find I still have the same love for the leather! You have some very talented people assembled here. I hope to learn from all of you. I only work the leather part-time as a hobby now...maybe someday...I will upload a couple of photos as an example of my work. The wallet (flowered was my first real project after some practice scraps) Looking forward to any comments John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
