Crazy Costume idea, go!

I'll blame some of the music I've been listening to for a reinvigorated love of Steampunk.  I have a Ren costume that I'm slowly evolving to have the ability to become dungeonpunk (think dnd/gritty feel), my old neo coat gives me a let up towards cyberpunk... Steampunk is left rather lacking.  I have a mixed feeling about cosplay and costuming in

Can you be a little more specific about what sort of leather-working books you need? I can probably find them for you.

basic crafting - what materials needed for threading, where to get them - I simply want to be able to tinker and futz around on my own, but I need to know the basic stitches and treatment of leathers to begin that process. Knowing where to get the materials, stuff like that... how to dye it, make it look polished...
