50 Years of Great Leather

2022 marks the 50th year I've been working with and sewing leather, and the 25th working out of my shop in Avon, IL. It's been a joy to repair and restore your beloved vintage leather garments; to craft beautiful, new leather products; and to share my 50 years of leather care wisdom with you all. Thank you for your support - I'm looking forward to seeing what Year 51 brings!
