  1. When I started fooling around with leather, I tooled the traditional gear than Baseballs. Those were ok but had no pull to them. What I Really like was doing scenes. I did a few but then making my own scenes kicked in and that's where the thrill kicked in. This was the start. the back one is a true picture.
  2. you are lucky,, if people don't stop coming down here wFLA will sink.. I am still on the land where i was born. Well babby I should say. coots-daperdill=wipwills and night hacks all but gone, forget the quail, they were in droves ,
  3. We all have those but I have scratched one off, Purses !!! A simple thing becomes complicated real fast especally if you have " you got to do that" female supervisor.
  4. Always here. Cardinals do make nice foreground subjects. Red Winged Blackbird is my sprit bird you might say. Grass ponds around here always had them but development of the groves and pastures ran them off,
  5. The short is that I have been working on an over the shoulder purse that started simple. the original concept turned up to small, so I had to modify it. It will be the last one and I can say i made them. So to give a brake off of frustration's, I completed this. Good or bad it was a well pleasured change.
  6. I do get inspired and I am inspired.. Enough said.
  7. The change purse has a few problems to work out.. The test pattern was a tad to small, but it was still useable. i found a perfect place for them. a space filler for the over Sholder purse.
  8. Me too. if it works they will be cool gift for single women
  9. That is a image i created to show what I was thinking. it will be 3d-carved- in the outline shape. If thaat looks bad the half circle with a border.
  10. I do some weird thinking and this one of the results of them. I am going to try making a change purse that looks like this.
  11. Thank you Then you know. These will really teach to to slow down. After these i sticking to belt buckle inserts and the rounders and rectangular stuff i do.
  12. Thank you Chuck. Will start other side to day,, there will be a wide strip of leather under the bottom tip of wings for bottom. I an going to try 3 different colors of thread,, the saddle stitch will become base color and 1 color for each side. cross weaving under stitches.
  13. This is definitely not what i really like to do. Then making grand nieces happy overrides that. Who knows after 4 of them , i might like doing them.
  14. Oh yea!!! i think I will leave the stitching up to you guys . I have 2 more purses to do.. they will have a butterfly shape. by the fourth one i may get it straight. Wait I am only dowing 3.. oh well !!!
  15. If you overlook stitch lines. i thought doing this would be easy. Well, that went south! I didn't think about how the strap was secured or the padding for shoulder. Then there is this thing call retention of directions. so its "that's cool but I'll do it the way i think i should." It will turn out ????? Good or bad
  16. I am doing this for a G/niece. I Haven't done this type of work in a lot of years, or it seems that way. I know the Lip Stick theory will work. Has in the past. Will see what happens.

    Saltwater Scene

    I am trying to make an allusion of glass. If I get it right, there would be lot of creations of scenes I can do. I have seen videos of how to do it, the thing is instructions and I do not get along so my way first.
  18. The image used will be part of a larger tooling that includes cattails and a Red winged black bird. After painting the basic colors, I wanted I covered with clear glitter. Always wanted to do that and this fit the bill.
  19. Faded colors has me hooked and my choice of what color to paint foliage

    Baseball Buckle

    A sport season buckle. Going to expand on different themes to accommodate whatever is happing at the time. Need to do the stitching.
  22. I ridden the urge to a yellow yellow butterfly. The next is a kid catching a baseball.
  23. I was knock out with a line drive in the 6th grade at school. So the game was total out. No watching from then on. But baseball scenes are fun to create and do.
