I found your post at just the right time for me, as I am planning on trying out the coptic stitch with leather for my final project at uni. And you are so right leather is expensive and pleather not a good choice!

Your books are fantastic and encouraging for me as a student in her final year… Thank you!!
Now off to the charity stores for leather.

Another place to look is sometimes just going to upholstery shops asking for leather they may have used on larger projects like reupholstering a sofa set or large valences, etc.
