We have
something new to introduce, our basic, how-to book! First published in
1997 as an aid for teaching our classes (we were tired of repeating
ourselves) it contains everything a student would
have gotten in
approximately ten
classes–and then some. It is soft cover,54 pages and size is 8 1/2” by 11”.
We Believe:
Rule #
1-"This is supposed to be fun, if it’s not,
you’re probably doing something wrong”
Rule # 3-"You
can fix it – no matter what!”
The book contains some leather identification, introduction to the cutting, stitching and to the tools for
working deer and elk hide, as well as the handling and properties of
those leathers.
It also contains instructions for a simple shirt and how to convert a commercial pants pattern. The idea being, with this
book and one of our Moccasin Patterns, anybody can dress themselves in a
good starter suit of buckskins!
In
the back of the book is a workbook section:
pages that can be copied to allow a novice to design their own next
project – and there are many sketches included.
