Beginner Friendly Guide to Leather Crafting Process, Tips and Techniques
Description of book
Suppose you have to appear for the exam next week, who would be the go-to person for seeking help and guidance?
Option 1 : A Subject Matter Expert (SME) who studies / teaches the subject for several years and often assumes that the basics are covered or looks at it from their frame of reference.
Or
Option 2 : Someone who also started from scratch as you have and passed the exam just last week. He / She knows the exact process, challenges, challenges, and roadblocks you may be facing and can think from your perspective.
If your option is 2, you're in the right place.
My leathercraft journey in the year 2014. I have already completed my first project after four months.
I was confused and lost in the magnitude of information available online. I firmly believe that when you start, you need, minimalistic information to start your first project, pardon: Complete your first project!
So I started writing this book to provide a minimalistic approach to your first leather project. It covers:
- History of leather
- Basics Tools and their use
- Making Patterns
- Cutting Patterns
- Gluing
- Beveling, Embossing, Stamping
- Stitching basics
- Coloring and Finishing
- Tips, Techniques for the beginner
-Leather Crafting, Physical Pain & Ergonomics * (New Chapter added!)
- Appendix: List of online resources available for free patterns, tips, and techniques .
I had the tips that helped me.
This book is for people who are in their first lap (0-3 years) of Leather crafting journey and want to have a holistic idea of processes, tools, and need help in their initial projects.
I have included photographs of realistic projects.
So, what are you waiting for?
