Thanks to everyone for your kudos!
So does this mean that your gonna have to redo the Elk hide arm rests? Do you have any problem with the glue gumming up the needle or bobbin? Maybe I missed it, but where did you buy your leather??

Hey, Denny
I bought my buffalo hides here:
http://www.hidehousesouth.com/Catalog/R-SwatchCards.htmNo problem with the glue -- never even noticed it. The glue is only a temporary hold, too ... done just to keep the foam from moving while sewing.
And, yes ... I've already recovered the armrests with buffalo. I might have left them with the elk because they looked great, but the bottom halves were done with cream elk and it was a poor match for the cream buffalo (actually called "palomino") and the black elk would've been obvious next to the dark chocolate buffalo. PS - The buffalo looks better, too!
