Cold1... not everyone has stopped playing cowboy and whips aren't just for cowboys! LOL
Saoirse,

It is good to know that there are still folks out there like you, who created a hand-made item from original materials.

It is a fascinating trade to make items from leather!!!

And Cold1,
It sounds as if you learned a very valuable trade while creating your wares.
