LEATHERCRAFT GUILD AT WORK
Time on your hands? Try a hobby. A group of Woodstock people spend many happy hours together doing leathercraft, one of the old art forms being revived across the country. As a local branch of the Canadian Leathercraft Guild, members learn many old and new ways of working with leather. Above Mrs. Irva Ford of Hamilton teaches the group how to make hand-shaped and tooled leather trays. Below busy hands of members show how, with patience and manipulation the leather is molded. Local members found that the size of the leather disks they were using made it possible to create leather fruit bowls. Mrs. James Reynolds, 500 Parkinson Rd. is president of the Woodstock branch.
