ON MY MIND

My brother gifted my husband a leather guitar pick from Corter Leather today and I couldn't help but look further into where it came from. Leather has been on my mind lately...

"Corter Leather is a super-small, one man operation. Every product is 100% hand made by maker Eric Heins in a small apartment studio in Boston, Massachusetts. Holes are punched and sewn by hand, hardware is set with a mallet, and though most leather is left natural, colored leather is dyed and oiled in house. No templates are ever made; each piece is cut by memory, making no two pieces perfectly alike."

    Wow! That's pretty amazing that there is no template involved and each piece is made from memory! I sew so I can definitely appreciate this. It's a bit of inspiration for me!
