I'm a glass engraver and pyrographer June so the crafts may be old but still going strong! I had a dear friend who was a really keen quiller and used to do a lot of cards using the technique. I've tried it and it's fiddly but fun to do. Sue

Wood carving, engraving of all kinds and poker work (nowadays called pyrography). How about quilling?.......I believe I read once that was originally done by nuns. Sue

Cordwainers made leather goods. They only used the best leather. Name originates from Spanish Cordoba leather. They were the elite and would be offended to be called cobblers. Beryl x
