FOR COWGIRLS??

Sorry, I didn't mean to leave you hanging in our last post. Some of you may have been shocked to hear that Mr. Legendary Leather is working on a "little sumtin" for them thar cowgirls out there. Don't feel ashamed . . . I'm just as shocked as you! What in the world could he possibly be making that would appeal to cowgirls? Well, here's a hint with some pictures that Mr. Legendary Leather reluctantly let me take. I told him that his adoring public is curious and we need to keep those "three followers" happy. It looks as though he has
transferred the pattern to the leather and has begun the "cutting " process.

The pencil outlines of the transferred pattern are shown in the upper right hand corner of the leather and the cutting/carving has begun in the lower left hand corner of the leather.

Any guesses on what he might be craftin'?

PROFILE

A Graphic Designer by trade . . . a cowboy artisan at heart, Mr. Legenday Leather developed an interest in leather-crafting back in his Boy Scout days. Around the same time, he also acquired what would eventually develop into an overwhelming interest in knives. As he grew older, he unknowingly "married" his two interests together and would occassionally craft a knife sheath to satisfy the "leather craving" within, sometimes with years in between crafted projects.

In his 40's, Mr. Legendary Leather added rifle and pistol shooting to his hobbies, while his curiosities about the old west developed into a passion for more knowledge about the "cowboy". Once again, "marrying" his interests, he discovered the "Single Action Shooting Society" (SASS) which is an international organization that was created to preserve and promote the sport of cowboy action shooting. SASS members share a common interest in preserving the history of the Old West and competitive shooting; "Each participant is required to adopt a shooting alias appropriate to a character or profession of the late 19th century, a Hollywood western star, or an appropriate character from fiction. Their costume is then developed accordingly. Many event participants gain more enjoyment from the costuming aspect of the sport than from the shooting competition, itself." . . . the key word in this quote being "costuming" . . .

In his enthusiasm to develop the ultimate cowboy costume, Mr. Legendary Leather called upon all of his resources and interests, which encompassed everything that would be needed to satisfy yet another "calling". The variety in his leather-crafted projects is a testament to his growth in crafting the bovine hide. With each new creation, he carefully refines and hones his skills.

The imagination holds endless possibilities . . . and Mr. Legendary Leather eagerly seeks the "dusty old trail" he will travel to create every one of them!
