Hi

I have been busy making watchstraps for fellow watchsavants on a Swedish watchforum. Thought I share some pics of some of the things I made. Please feel free to criticize and comment anything you thing could be better.

The watch straps look good. I find the construction of the card holder really interesting at the card opening ... the leather being folded at that point rather than at the bottom. Looks great.

These look fantastic. What size/type of leather and thread are you using? What is the thread/inch count?

The finish of your products is fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks!

I use Swedish vegetable tanned leather from Tärnsjö. Its very smooth and easy to work with. The thread is Tiger thread 0.8mm. I use Joseph Dixon pricking iron often 8 or 7 /inch
