I have always been drawn to the "long ago era" crafts like blacksmithing and leatherwork. I was growing my artisan blacksmithing portfolio when a shoulder injury requiring surgery and 8 months healing sidelined my aspirations. I had worked in leather off and on over the years but took it up in earnest while recovering from shoulder surgery. It can be a challenging medium, but I do love it.
