Natalie ★★★★★

The close-up shots of different leather cuts finally helped me tell veg-tan from chrome-tan at a glance. Geert's photo-heavy layout makes even the more complex projects feel approachable, and I've already finished my first wallet.

Natalie B. ★★★★★

The step-by-step photos for the basic wallet project saved me from ruining several cuts of leather. I’ve already made two projects from this book and feel more confident than I did with online tutorials.

Henry ★★★★★

The leather type explanations finally cleared up something I’ve been guessing at for years, and the photo of the cut sections made it click. I’ve already picked out two projects from the basic section to start this weekend.
