I am wanting to do some designs which require me to stitch designs in the leather. My question is: What can i use to draw the design on the leather that will come off after the design is stitched? I have tried chalk, and one of those white fabric pencils, but neither seem to want to show up on the leather. Any suggestions?

I found a whole folder full of leather patterns, all in french (thanks Google for the translations:-) ) Making a few searches it seams to be printed in 1908 and all patterns is in the style of Art Nouveau. A full book would be 48 planches with , photo and drawing patterns, mine is 46. So, I'm looking for someone that has this book/folder and willing to share the last two I'm missing as scannings...The name is "Le Cuir" compositions decoratives by Jehand Raymond Just a small picture from this folder/book for all leather people out there:-)

I was wondering if the armor makers of the forum would be willing to share how to make a pattern for a breast plate? What Im looking for is what do use for a pattern? A shirt, tank top? Im having problems wrapping my mind around the arm hole and Im sure its really easy and Im more than likely over thinking the matter, but with every pattern that I make it comes up tight in the arm/shoulder area and resticts arm movement. With looking at other armors on the web it looks like some might use a old tank top as a pattern, am I on the mark or out in left field? Serena

Hi I posted this and thought I make a thread for it here also, if anyone need it. Made a template for people who want to try to glue on card paper and use as templates. Standard size 115/75. 18-16, 20-18, 22-20 When you print it and measure to the fold line you will see that it's 1mm too short, the template is made for 1mm leather, and when folded it compensates for the fold. (So not a error in the drawing) I choose to not use a curve for the taper, because it's such a small taper it will both look curved and be curved when sanded. And it makes it easy to cut out templates after glued to card paper, because you can use a ruler for everything exce…

This is the pattern I use to make my archers bracers. The only fun part with this bracer is to view the final result. It is stringed together at the side of the arm. It is made as a right or left arm piece. I use tracing film to trace cutting pattern over from this sketch so remember to flip the film upsidedown if you want to make a right arm piece. THIS IS A LEFT ARM PATTERN!!! Sizing: The original to this one is to fit an arm wich is about 19cm (7,4") diameter and you can see the mark for Cris is 17,5cm (6,8") so for that bracer I just cut the marked edge off from the original to fit his arm and make sure to follow the hole lines to mark out the stringing holes accordi…

I'm not good enough yet to do Saddle Bags from just a pattern yet, and I don't have the correct leather weight, so I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get a kit for an old west Saddle Bag?

A couple weeks ago Randy Cornelius asked me to post the purse pattern book I made up a few years ago. A little injury and some forced time out of the shop gave me the time to find my last remaining book and get it scanned in this morning. I think I printed up and mailed about 450 of these a few years back. These are some patterns I have used in the past, and still do. Some things I have changed, mostly the tooling patterns. The techniques have pretty much stayed the same. It is about 35 pages or so, and a big file - 15 MB. If I was more computer literate I could probably make it easier.
