Greetings leathercrafters! Since makers tend to make more than one sort of thing, and we crafters need to stick together, here’s a list of fellow creative communities for your navigation pleasure.
For each craft I’ll include the current most active community first as well as alternatives, and add each with their full URL as well as local links for Lemmy and Kbin users respectively.

Craft on, people. Craft on 🙂
Did you come across some design communities? I think that would be a nice edition to this list and good for learning. I’ll take a look what I find as well and maybe we could add to this post.
Thanks, suggestions very welcome! I didn’t find anything like that on my first couple of trawls but am planning another expedition tomorrow to pick up any new places. Let’s see what we can find :)
