Members jrjr2u Posted June 5, 2019 Members Report Posted June 5, 2019 So I joined this forum a couple years ago and have been browsing around ever since. I just recently started posting due to needing some advice on a sewing machine I bought used. Here I am anyway so I thought I would say hey.... I mostly make holsters but make wallets and bags along with a few other items. Here's my website if you wanna take a peek - https://lakeshoreleather.com/ Until recently all my sewing has been done by hand. This sewing machine deal is interesting but I don't know if it will catch on cheers! Quote ~My leather machines~ Consew 206RB-4 Chinese shoe patcher 50W laser
bikermutt07 Posted June 5, 2019 Report Posted June 5, 2019 Welcome aboard. I too have recently gotten into sewing machines. I'm still pretty intimated by them. They always look at me menacingly when I walk into the studio. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.

I hope you mean "intimidated" ... don't want to see folks getting intimated with/by their sewing machines!
