CHECK IT OUT! Our State Magazine featured my suede pot holders again! This was a wonderful surprise to me and needless to say, I'm THRILLED!   THANKS, Our State Magazine!

What a project! I've only done one more of these and it was pretty small and without the belt. This holster here for GH was to be a western style gun belt & holster, with his initials. Those were his only requests. I had "artistic freedom" to decide on all the rest. What fun! It was cut from heavy, natural, vegetable tanned leather: thick stuff! It was tooled,    holes were punched & it was wet-formed, then it was dyed & a finish was applied. Then, assembly. And then it was worn! 🙂 Thanks GH! A fun project and a learning experience as well! * * *

All set for tomorrows market day - The Spring Fling on Oak Island, the first of the year! My containers are FULL of freshly made leather goods and the truck is loaded . . .  I worked hard to make the loading and unloading and the general set-up easier on myself for the upcoming season but, when I was loading the truck I swear I have MORE stuff. Oh well. Hope to see you there!  😄
