Workshop Description: Do you have fences to mend? Are you in need of small saddle bags to carry those mending tools? Do you want your saddlebags to be more personal? Do you want saddlebags with a pattern to take home with you? Then this workshop is for you! In this workshop, you will assemble and border stamp (with pre-cut leather) a pair of cowboy working saddlebags. These saddlebags are shaped to fit behind the cantle, complete with a pouch to hold your fencing pliers (pliers not included), or any other item you may want to carry. You will also finish and polish the edges and border stamp your bags, using your border stamp. Take home a pair of finished saddlebags and a paper pattern. Bring your motivation to work hard! {Davis will be using a COBRA Class 4 sewing machines, a burnisher, and a splitter; if you are interested in purchasing COBRA equipment at the show, call Leather Machine Company by February 1 to pre-order at +1 (866) 962-9880. Deposit required.}

Workshop Instructor: Davis Reynolds started serious leather work after returning from Iraq in 2003. As a disabled veteran, Davis enjoys working with new beginners and veterans in the area of leathercraft. Growing up in a rodeo family we quickly learned how to repair our gear and eventually lead to rebuilding a saddle. He enjoys the learning process and helping others with their work. He also has a small saddle shop at his home near Grand Canyon, Arizona.
