thin garment leather.
« on: December 29, 2014, 07:01:26 pm »
I need some thin garment leather or suede, preferably red.  I need enough to lime a coyote quiver plus for the straps. Let me know what you have and what you want for it.
 I will have hill cane soon, I have a few staves and lots of other stuff.

I have some thin pigskin leather that is kind of orange-brown looking.  I also have chamois.  Also some thin veg tanned leather but it's a tan color... not red.  I'd love to get some of that cane.  ;D

How much of the pig skin do you have and how thick is it?  What weight is the veg tanned?

I have a roll of thin shoe leather, burgundy. Smooth on one side and suede like on the other. Id say its 30 x 40 or so. Maybe bigger. PM me if you want Patsy.

Ed, will you send me pics?  I'd really like red if I can get it.

The pigskin is one 1 oz. and the veg tanned is 2 oz.  They are both used for book binding.  But I'm not planning on binding any books at this time.   :)

Here are pics of the pigskin (2 pcs).  The veg tanned is lighter in color and a little larger in size.  That's a yardstick in the pics.

Pat, I have two (2) pieces of red leather that you can have.  They measure 12" by 25" and 10-" by 20".  They are larger than that in spots but if I was to cut the lather into rectangles that is what they would measure.

They are nice pieces of red leather on the thinner side.  Just PM an address and I will get them out to you Monday morning.

Jon, will you post a pic or email one? How thick is it? I need something thin to use as a liner for a Plains style coyote quiver.
 Patrick, PM sent.

Pat,
don't know how to post or email photo's.  this is nice leather on the thinner side. I could cut a small piece and mail it to you and if you can use it, it's yours.
