ILTrailRider Report post Posted January 12, 2016 Glad to be a member. I'm a hobbyist of many things and am trying my hand at leather work. I am about to purchase a heavy duty sewing machine, so this forum should offer a good variety of facts and opinions. I'm sure I'll be able to pick up a lot of general tips along the way, too. Aside from reading and spending time with our grown children and grandchildren, I like to bike, walk and spend time outdoors. I am an avid horse rider and trail ride all over the Midwest and further west. Thus, many of my hobbies center around equine related projects. I do beading to hang off the saddles, make fly sheets for them and now am embarking on leather pouches for riders. Looking forward to meeting other leather enthusiasts. Thank you.
