Curtis, it looks real good so far, I see you've done a bit of a weave aplique just under your "Colors", very nice. Is that roo lace you are using? if so, how is the flexibility of it? Oh yeah, can we see the front please? Glad my tutorial is of help to you, it's always nice to know that your able to help someone out in whatever way you can. Ken

Anne, glad to see it all worked out for you on these chaps. I also see they are great, the design stitched in really adds to the look. Ken

Justwakin, that's great work. The stitching and design and inlay and colors all fit so nicely. Kevin King will have to watch out for you. Ken

I can't get enough of these mask. Great job, and tooling is great as well. As to the face, it is very hard to do faces, but with practice it will come. Thanks for sharing. Ken

Roger, great job on the seat, I love the design ,a nd the way you've dyed it to "sparkle" around the flowers. Love the lacing as well. Ken

Roo, that's a wonderful looking mask. I can just imagine the work you put itno getting it to looks so good. Those fin thingies on top, are they actually the same piece of leather that the rest of the mask is made of, just foled and molded? Wonderful job, thanks for sharing. Ken

Okay, who other than me is confused? Sunny warm and snow melting here, beautiful spring day. Ken

Welcome LB, great to have you here. Just wondering though, if it's a gift you got your wife, how come your using it? Are you both taking up the craft? Great looking work so far, and don't worry about the kitchen table, you can always eat in the living room. Ken

Now that's a MASK. When the page first opened, I jumped a bit, kinda scared me at first. Great job, especially the coloring of it. Also thanks for sharing the template with us. Ken

Very nice mask, the color is just right, especially the way you've faded it. Thanks for sharing. Ken

Thank you Myriam, if in the right mood I can even whip up from scrath some pretty damned good donuts, if you can believe. Kate, maybe we should start a new type of PIF. I remember a few years back where a guy on Ebay started with a pink paper clip, and after about a year, ended up with a house that him and his new wife moved into. Okay, I'll dye a piece of leather pink....yikes, and send it to the first person that wants to trade for a nice little house..... Ken

AWESOME seat Kevin, love the way you've kinda hidden so to speak the evil face in this. Ken

Kate, what is "medieval justice" last I recal from Discovery Channel, it involved racks and chains and well who knows what? I'm glad you like your PIF, it was a joy to actually carve wood again, and smell the wood dust rather than leather dust. And to think the day after I sent out those Barry King stamps, all the tutorials on basket weaving showed up on the forum....did you know something in advance...LOL Ken

Well hello Mike, great to have another leather fan here. Your one of the luckier ones to have some help close at hand. Hope to see some of your work soon. Ken

Tan, great job here, I know there are going to be a few people very happy that you took the time to put this tutorial together for us. It is always so very much appreciated when people take time away from thier work to do pictures and write instructions so others can benifit from our knowledge. And for being such a new member, My hat is off to you for doing this. Thank you very much, and keep up the great work. Love your bag by the way. Ken

Frog, now that's what everyone was talking about. You nailed it on this one, skulls nicely hidden among the flowers...EXCELENT work. Ken

Yep, that is a Gothic Unicorn. Great job Kimber and very nicely colored. Ken

Very nice, I love that Dragon. Keep up the great work. Ken

Welcome to the forum Taylor, I see your a person after my own heart. I love to see the lacing like that on projects. Beautiful bag, great color combination, and excelent lacing. You'll fit in nicely here. Ken

That's a great job, the tribal is very nice, and the lacing looks very neet. Thanks for sharing, your daughter is going to love this. Ken

Very nice looking Grumpy, the Celtic is very nice. I know you'll be back to your great work soon enough. Ken

Thank you everyone for the accolaides, they are much appreciated. Can't wait to see some of the ones you guys are going to make. Curtis, I got a "Beeza Blister" on the end of my finger braiding those things, it's the one thing I just hate to do. They are about 6 feet long each. This way the customer can size them accordingly to how they want. Ken

Great looking bag Tan, and the color is real nice. I'm waiting patiently also for the tutorial as well. Ken

How far off course Wolvie? Ken
