Little about Pegeen:

She has been working with leather for more than 30 years. She was trained by master leather workers Peter Main, Rob Barr, Tony Lair,  Jim Linnell. She had her own leather craft store for years after buying Lindale Ave. Tandy where she would teach out of the shop. She studied boot making under Master Boot Maker DW Frommer II in Redmond,  Oregon. She has been making boots by hand ever since. She is well known in the Big Island Rendezous and Historical reenactment circiut teaching how to make shoes and leather goods the traditional way.  She only recently been able to purchase leather sewing machines that reduce the time it takes to create shoes and boots without sacrificing quality.
