A co-worker wantes me to make a couple of Mission style bar stools. They MAY want leather seats on them. Anyone know of a source for leather? Thanks.

Try and locate fabric stores that deal in decorator fabrics, especially the ones that deal with wholesalers/interior designers. Jo-Ann's, Hancock will not carry it. There are 2-3 in the Phoenix area that I know of.

Hi Royce:

Try this link http://www.leatherfactory.com/ It worked well when LOML needed lambskin for custom lampshades. There may be a distributor close to you. Good luck.

I've purchased hides from Brettuns Village and been happy with their product and prices http://www.brettunsvillage.com/
