          Thank you so much! Trying to decide if I should keep it or sell it. It's going to be a hard one to let go of!

            I’d keep that one for sure. But just make a promise to yourself to sell the next one no matter what.

                  That's a handy spooler! I'm a sucker for anything named after bees.

                                    Well, shit. I went a little nuts and saddle stitched an entire jacket! There are 111 hours of labor, two full sides of leather, and 125 meters of thread in this jacket. I learned so much, and I can't wait to make another. I have some custom ZeeBee buttons on the way because I couldn't bear to put some generic buttons on something like this.

                                          I’ve been following this on Instagram and have been so exited to see the finished product. It is just spectacular. I’m amazed. If you were to make these for sale, what sort of money would you have to charge?
