An Old Man Learns a New Trick

My lovely wife cleverly found an opportunity for me to get my hands busy and get out of my own head for a few hours with a fun craft experience; leather craft to be exact. 

Susan Hill is a Six Nations Mohawk woman and veteran leather work artisan who offers course. I took a four hour course on how to make a pair of moccasins. 

The course was hosted by Kat’s Craft Corner to fifteen lovely folks, including me. Susan is a great teacher, and guided us through the intricate and satisfying task of creating something from leather. 

I really enjoyed this opportunity to have fun while learning a new skill and spending time with like-minded people.

It felt very nice to connect with other creative individuals, which allowed me to leave my worries behind for even just four hours.

This is just another example of how wonderful my wife is. I’m so glad I picked her.

Nudge.
