Christmas Chinks for my Wife

Recommended Posts

I just wanted to show a few pictures of my latest project. These are the second pair of chaps I have made and probably the 5th tooling job. I think I am hooked I am pretty proud of the way they turned out. I have spent the last several months drawing sheridan style patterns on paper and learning what I liked and this is what I came up with. Please let me know where I can improve there are many of you on here that I envy and study your work. Please continue to post your pictures they inspire me to learn how to make my tooling better. The yokes were inspired by out west saddlery. Thought I would give credit were due. I hope they dont mind.

I think they look great. Did you hand sew them or use a machine? Is she going to wear them on one of the snowboards? :-D

I used a machine. I was planning on hand sewing them but I started to run out of time. By the time I was ready to stitch them up it was about 4 pm on the 23rd so I found someone with a sewing machine. And as far as the snowboards. She probably would were them up on the hill. She hasnt hardly taken them off the last two days. :) Im glad she likes them.

I guess that means you did a really good job. Looks like it from here too. Always good to make the spouse happy.
