Leather offcuts

[Hodge]

I am hoping to make a leather tinder pouch. Therefore, I need to source a 15 inch diameter piece of leather. Any of you able to point me in the right direction to source leather offcuts of the stated size?

If you have the space available then the best option is to buy an old second-hand leather sofa or chair. Skin that and dispose of the carcass, it's mostly rough sawn timber and plywood inside. Fly-tippers also abandon soiled or badly worn examples in the remote places, so remember Rule#1 always carry a sharp pocket knife

Failing that... give me a few days to have a rummage in the garage I've some White/Cream leather from an old armchair in there somewhere

Bishop. Thank you for the advice.

Would this be any good to you? The blue thing is a AA battery for scale.

It's the wing off an old armchair made from several pieces stitched together.
