There was a young woman at my previous job - the one I had for 2 weeks - whose name was Lauren Bot.

She gave me my orientation.

When I got the email saying I was meeting with Lauren Bot, I thought it was some cute online thing they had set up.

But nope.
 
My weird oven mitt is done. Leather is so stiff that I can't flip it around the right way. Oh well.

Now what?

What are you testing?

Goal is to make a prototype/sample for a local seamstress to use as a template. (This is separate from my importing business, which is going ahead as planned.) I want to offer something made here, out of US materials, to appeal to the BUY LOCAL crowd.

I made this oven mitt just to test whether I'd even be able to make a glove myself. I am!

So the next step is to make a glove of my design on the actual leather I want to use (US deer and elk.) This white leather is bargain-bin pigskin that is too stiff to make a useable glove. Good to practice on is all.

Lesdothis. :stevie:
 
Why yes, I just invented motorcycle gloves.

My design idea is pretty simple. One extra piece of leather that covers strategic areas of the palm, pinky and knuckles.

I'd show it to you but then I'd have to kill you.
