Leather Alterations in Connecticut?

[armscye]

I have a wonderful tailor, but his machine can't handle a motorcycle style jacket with 1.2mm leather. Can anyone recommend a leather alterations specialist in Connecticut?

BTW I've gone the route of contacting saddle shops and cycle dealers, and to my astonishment, haven't received a viable recommendation. Heavy duty leather seems to be a very rare specialty.

Where in CT is your tailor?

Danbury. Cerveira's. Classically trained, second generation, Portuguese master tailor. Fernando was waxing thread for his father at the age of six, he tells me.
