Note from the Editor….
The Newsletter “Canadian Leathercraft” is your source of information about CSCL and its members. Also check out the CSCL website at www.canadianleathercraft.org and CSCL’s Facebook page.

I am always looking for articles for the Newsletter, do you have a project that you have done that you think everyone would be interested in seeing, we are looking for articles?

This issue I am looking back in time to some of the magazines published in the 1970’s for projects.

Highlights from the Past Executive Council Meetings….

At our September meeting we discussed how the virtual Zoom AGM went. We had some suggestion and the Fellows are going to review how the judging went and what can be improved.

At our October meeting we had a guest, Kristi Cino from Tundra Leather talking about what is happening and what is new in her store in Hamilton. Della Chynoweth sent some sea leather fish skins to the President of each branch and we encourage members from the branches to come up with ideas to use the leather. Visit Sea Leather Wear’s web site for ideas. Contact your President for further details. Lauren Malac has the skins for MAL’s and you can contact her for one.

At our November meeting we discussed the possibility of having Zoom training courses. Stay tuned for more info on that.
