Vikti Report post Posted October 20, 2008 Hi all, I just found out about this forum this last week and I'm amazed as to all the experience and help that everyone has posted. I started working with leather when I joined the SCA about 11 years ago and put it up after about 2 years and just started back with it again about 6 months ago. I haven't done much lately except try to build my skills up but here is what I have done earlier today, my first attempt at an oak leaf mind you, not bad in my opinion though my photography skills can use a lot of improvement. And from time to time I'll post some of the stuff my oldest daughter does now that she has an interest. Talk to everyone later, Damon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BillB Report post Posted October 24, 2008 Damon, I would like to welcome you and your daughter to the Forum. I think you will find that we are all interested in advancing the art and craft of leatherwork. You will find that there are lots of ways to solve a problem and we all have different experiences and that is why we share them. Sample them, find the ones that work best for you, modify them to fit your style and needs, expand on them and then share them. That is how we learn and grow the knowledge base. And remember that we all had our first leather project, even if it was so long ago that we can't remember what it was or where it is today. 8-) Look around, ask questions, share your work and techniques, enjoy the coffee and cookies. BillB. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
