My new FAVOURITE leather?

[@theMisadventuresofaLittleWolf]

i have the saffiano and the tartufo and they are really lovely quality, easy to work too.

[@JHLeather]

They are both so nice! I also mixed some of the saffiano with some mid tan lamport leather I have and it was 👌

[@dperisty1]

Wow lots of unique colors and I love the textures! The bloopers at the end are worth a watch hahah good one

[@JHLeather]

Glad you enjoyed! I had a good chuckle at myself when filming and editing this one 😂

[@daveturnbull7221]

Thanks Jo - going to head over there for a look later. Loved the bloopers 😂

[@JHLeather]

Glad you enjoyed it! The leathers are so nice, haven't made my decision on what ones I want to stock yet, for me that they are dyed through is a game changer 👍

[@daveturnbull7221]

@@JHLeatherAbsolutely agree - dyed through removes one more step that I can mess up on and in my opinion having the same colour on the edges looks so much nicer.

Thanks for posting, Jo, and Metropolitan's shipping rates to the US are very reasonable. I've always bought directly from Italy, but these rates seem a bit better. Also: 🥶🤣

[@JHLeather]

Haha yes it was very chilly that day! Slowly getting warmer though 👍

[@mrichards3057]

Struggle with words No way Joe Very well presenented, Keep warm Girl

[@mrichards3057]

Sorry Jo

[@JHLeather]

Thank you! 😊

[@ffotograffydd]

Thank you Jo! I’d seen these on the Metropolitan newsletter, but dismissed them because it’s belly. I’m impressed though and will give them a try!

[@oceanbeliever681]

Thx Jo

[@dbirdez]

I just came here to hear you talk 😊, actually I saw one other video and loved your work

[@jgdevoe]

Loved the added humor! Not sure I can get these in the states at a reasonable cost but we’ll see. Can you recommend a text that describes the areas of leather, what they are like, and how each is best used please.

[@V3leathercraft]

Il Ponte have good varities in belly itself...it's great they have a re seller in India...

[@JHLeather]

Thats awesome! I think that Metropolitan are going to be adding some more to the 4 they have just stocked as well 👍

[@JonathonPorter-cc5ry]

Thanks

[@katiejames6003]

Is the deeper pinky red called Bordeaux? And is the blue called Turkey Blue? They look different on the website.

[@freddiemoretti8456]

Molto Bene! I think your pronounciation of square foot was just right, but what does a Scotsman know? Thanks for sharing! Cheers...Freddie

[@JHLeather]

😂😂 Thank you

[@andrewwhite4025]

Hi Jo, having trouble beveling the saffiano as it ripples as I try. Sharpened the tool first and pressed down a metal ruler a couple of mil from the edge but beveller kept jumping. I'm not the most experienced leather worker but most of my edges look fine. must be me as Jo's edges look good . Any help from anyone would be great. Thanks all. Andy

[@andrewwhite4025]

Sorry all , now ok.

[@JHLeather]

Glad you got it sorted Andy 👍

[@RussellChapman99]

What would you say about using MS Paint to create 2d templates for leatherwork? So much CAD software seems overly complex for what I need.

[@tommygamba170]

So latin leather
