As most of you know, my biggest inspiration for trying my hand at leather work is Chuck Burrows. I don't know why I thought I could do it but for whatever reason, I did. I learned immensely from Chuck's videos, his countless internet forum posts in various places and his direct tutelage. I have a great many pics off his website saved and still refer to them often for inspiration. It was Christmas in June 2014 when I found out that he had actually recommended my work to others. Unfortunately, by the time I was ready to order some of his work, he was too sick to take any more orders and in April of 2016, he passed away. Examples of his work are many but to find any for sale is another matter entirely. In the last few months, I've been able to procure a few pieces and make some new friends in the process. So thanks again to Terry and Steve. I am truly blessed to finally be able to own examples of Chuck's work.
This one was always one of my favorites and the beadwork pattern inspired my first beaded sheath.
Then these goodies came yesterday. A dagger, beaded knife sheath, floral carved Slim Jim and a tapered gun belt.
