Meet the Leathersmith

Hi! I'm Dee and these are my buddies:  

my horse, Zebby and my dog, Roscoe.  I am a leathersmith and we are active competitors in the sport of Working Equitation.  (Roscoe doesn't actually compete but he comes along for our moral support).

I grew up around leathersmiths and horses.  My parents were accomplished leathersmiths and they hauled my horses and I around the country from Colorado to Canada so I could compete in Arabian horse shows.

Today, I live in northern Minnesota on beautiful Morcom Lake. I am a self taught leathersmith and complete all of my projects 100% by hand and with no machines.  I am a one-woman show, creating one project at a time, which are inspired by my life in the beautiful Northwoods of Minnesota.
