Thanks all.
I leathered 4 oars a few weeks ago. That's another exercise in doubled, criss-cross stitching pulled tight (sore hands, broken thread, a broken needle, etc.) After that, I'd rather avoid too many "learning opportunities" on the kayak skin. I'll have to visit the upholstery section of the fabric/craft shop and the fishing section of the sporting goods store. I'll drop the waxy stuff (artificial sinew, whipping twine, floss lower on the list).
