Your wallet the KK way Special Event!

[Kevin King]

Well, here I go Johanna.

Due to the fact that I am not a huge fan of recieving hand outs and all you crazy people seem to have this facsination (almost an obsession) with helping each other out, i would like to announce an event that will hopefully help leatherworker.net, myself, expenses for my dad, and one lucky winner.

Whats the prize you ask?

This is where it gets fun.

I have been asked many times how I do this, or how'd I do that. Some elements of what I do I have shared and other parts I have withheld as my personal trade secret. Now i would like to offer up everything I know about making one of my wallets. Everything.

This will be a raffle style event. The prize being a completly one-off custom piece to the winner. Also included will be a step by step detailed tutorial of the making of your wallet. Everything from what kind of leather I use for each part of the piece, dimensions, design transfer, suppliers, thread size, needle size etc. Everything. I will also offer up my personal cell number (once I get it turned back on) so you can call with questions.

Now, how's this gonna work?

The cost to enter is $20. $10 will go to Kevin King Leather and $10 will go Leatherworker.net.

You can enter as many times as you wish with as much as you wish. For example: If you send $40 you will be entered twice, If you send $100 you will be entered 5 times and those of you that were generous enough to help out previously will automatically be entered.

This event starts now and the deadline for entries is November 18th with the winner to be announced on November 20th, 9pm CST.

So...Who's interested?

Sounds very cool. Great idea to help leatherworker.net as well with 50% of the proceeds.

Sounds like a bargain to me!

I've been saving my money for a KK wallet so I could tear it apart and try to figure out some of his secrets. Now the question is.....am I feeling lucky?

I love donating to a good cause, and this is a good cause x 2.

I'm touched, Kevin. You've got so much going on right now, but you still thought about LW. I don't think everyone realizes that LW has bills too. I know you will get things squared away soon- you are a "can-do" kinda guy. I closed the shop 10 years ago, I never sewed on a machine much, and even I want to know the "secrets" to the look you get, even though I will never use the knowledge. My curiosity was piqued a long time ago because you do such fine work. Hope you get set up soon, and hugs to you and your son! Thank you for thinking about LW. We've been lucky to make some great friendships here, haven't we?
