We now have a clubroom phone the number is:

At present the ringer is a bit soft (we are working on this problem) so don't be surprised if no one answers and you have to call back (at least for now).

Leather carver of the month

Kyle Betz


“Leather Carvers President Kyle Betz gives instruction to the Spring New Members Class.  The club provides a series of 4 classes for all new members each building upon the previous class lessons.  All new members are taught how to use the 7 basic tools that have been used for many years in leather crafting, as well as hands on instruction in stamping, carving and belt making.  The students are provided with materials needed to practice their new skills outside of class as well as in class projects.  Many other classes are held throughout the winter months giving instruction in staining, wet molding, tool sharpening, sewing, and many other skills required to complete a leather project.  All scheduled classes have been completed for the season and will resume in the fall. 
         The Leather Carvers meet at the Kuentz Rec Center Monday thru Friday beginning at 8:00 am.  For more information check out their great web site: scwleathercarversclub.weebly.com or call #480-341-2057."

Last March, the ladies of the club thought it might be fun spending  an afternoon working on a project.  It was suggested they make name tags, since our club name tags can no longer be used. 
​It turned out to be a very fun afternoon with lots of good humoured teasing and laughter.  Some etremely creative name tags were produced. 
Everyone enjoyed themselves enough, that another get together has been planned for this March.
Thank you to Jean, who not only provides her expertise, but also tools, glue, patterns, and paint.  
                   COME JOIN THE FUN!!!!
