Resources
This list is a starting point for locating leather suppliers and experts. With a little research, you will find other online vendors and perhaps a shop near your home. If you enjoy working and socializing with others, check out the leatherworking guild Internet sites. There you will find more resources and regional leathercraft groups who conduct regular information–sharing meetings and sponsor other events and activities. If there are no groups in your area, consider starting your own club. You may be surprised at how many people are engaged in this centuriesold craft and wish to share their knowledge and accomplishments.
