Hi I’m Shannon. I design and make leather handbags and accessories. I sew all of my products on my industrial sewing machines. Now I am wanting to hand stitch some of my handbags. I’m new to this and am looking to get the tools I need to get started. I live in the metro Atlanta area of the USA. Where can I find the tools suggested by Peter? Thank you.

Which pricking irons (branch) , needles would you recommend if you live in Europe, Belgium,
I like KS blade however they are very sharp and maybe more difficult to handle for beginners. Amy Roke is another favorite. They have a nice shape and the teeth aren't too sharp so you can use them to mark without cutting into the leather. KS blade you can't use to mark, they are too sharp.
John james needles and meisi thread. I live in New York. I buy most of my stuff online.
