Johanna Report post Posted June 3, 2007 I suppose you speak French as well, right X? I just sent an email to the artist with an invitation to visit the forum and introduce himself. (Herself?) Awesome work- I just wish Google translator worked a little bit better. Thanks for sharing the link, and (fingers crossed) maybe we'll get to meet the artist!

candyleather Report post Posted June 3, 2007 Of corse, Madame Johanna Cuir (cuir = leather)! Is a joke. I can read and understand french perfectly because is similar to the galician, my native lenguage, but I don't know write it and I speak french only a little, therefore I don't sent her an email; I also speak portuguese. I don't know none french leathecrafters forum but I look any time someone or other french knifemakers forums, they have a good level for the knife sheaths. I also ignore the french leathercraft market, but I have a friend living there and he told me that they have problems for get all they need for leatherworking and they buy a lot of articles to the stores in Germany (a Tandy dealer) or England. Now I am studying germany, russian and chinese!!! I do it just in case they coming into leatherworker.net Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ClayB Report post Posted December 2, 2007 Thanks again Candy, There are some really great things in these sites too! I really like the first site with the flowers, they look almost real. Some pretty cool masks in some of them too. I'll need some time to look at all of the stuff in there. It's really fun to see what people around the world are doing with leather.
