Wildlife Hatbands & Bolos Patterns by Paul Burnett

A defining strength of this collection is the depth of instruction included alongside the artwork. Paul Burnett explains not just where to cut, but how to think about form, depth, and modeling. The layouts use dark, toned lines rather than dotted guides, helping leatherworkers understand bevel direction, fading cuts, and subtle shaping. LearnLeathercraft.com has partnered with the family of the late Paul Burnett to make this pattern pack available again in a digital format, preserving and sharing his work with a new generation of leatherworkers.
