Have you tried posting a message wi...Hello, Julia. Have you tried posting a message with the Shoe Service Institute of America (http://www.ssia.info/)? I looked at their web site and they have a forum where it looks like you could post message and someone would respond to you. <br /><br />Here is a link to a web site that appears to have books and videos about shoemaking. Perhaps something there would be of use to you: http://www.shoemakingbook.com/<br /><br />Have you ever visited the Third Monday Trade Days in McKinney? It's a big flea market held once a month on U.S. 380 off of Central Expressway. Here is their web site: http://www.tmtd.com/ I've never gone, but I keep promising myself I'll get down there to wander around one of these weekends. I wonder if one of their vendors is a cobbler or leatherworker who could teach you. <br /><br />I don't know if any of these resources would help you. I truly hope you can find someone to provide some assistance! :)Miss Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11368631270713699190noreply@blogger.com
