Those are stunning.

These are the first five projects I've attempted. From each iteration I learned new techniques and gotchas. The time to complete went from 10 hours for my first card holder, to under 5 hours for the last attempt. The following photos are of front and back of each card holder. 1st attempt. 2nd attempt: 3rd attempt: 4th attempt: 5th attempt: I'm loving leather crafting. I appreciate any feedback. Luke.

Great idea. Looks great.

Looks great.

Beautiful.

@Bobby B I know of Tandy Leather who sell tiger thread in 100 meter spools here in Canada. Also OA Leather supply sells tiger thread in 500 and 1000 meter spools also in Canada. OA is much more economical, but you have to buy a lot more, so spending more up front. I’ve ordered product from both these suppliers. Tandy has faster shipping. Hope this helps. Luke.

Thank you very much for the additional feedback @TonyV

Thank you for the feedback @Dwight

Thank you for the feedback @ClaimedVacancy

Thank you for the comment @TonyV When you say tie your square knot, do you then just cut the thread flush or near flush before hammering? Thank you very much for the advice.

I put iron to leather for the first time about 2 weeks ago. This is my first attempt at cutting leather to equal sizing, and second time sewing two pieces of leather together. Feedback would be most welcome. (I don't have a suitable beveler). Thank you.
