iknowthemuffinman Report post Posted November 7, 2018 Does anyone in Chicago/Chicagoland Area know where I could get some scraps/remnants? I've looked around at some places in the city and online, but am looking for some more advice/sources if anyone has any. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sceaden Report post Posted November 11, 2018 (edited) Springfield Leathercraft has some good scrap packs that are worth the money. They also sell most leathers by the square foot so you can order as little as a single square foot of leather which is much better than most scrap packs since you get larger pieces without a lot of investment. I typically don't recommend the Tandy scrap packs as you barely get anything large enough to use for the price. Edited November 11, 2018 by Sceaden Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iknowthemuffinman Report post Posted November 13, 2018 Thanks! I've looked at Springfield and like some of their offers. I agree on Tandy's as well. In the past I've used a lot of Micheals and Hobby Lobby leather scraps. Recently, I've been trying to see about finding other (perhaps better) sources of scraps/remnants.

Sceaden Report post Posted November 13, 2018 SLC's remnant packs are true, quality leather scraps for much better prices than anything you'll find at the hobby shops. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lazyd Report post Posted November 28, 2018 What type/size/thickness leather are you looking for? I can pack a lot of scraps in a post office flat rate box. I have big boxes full I would love to sell! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
