Looks very elegant. If it were mine, I would sew along the edge of both sides of the strap and maybe along the top of the bag itself.

Hope you all like this bag, it was not fun, but well worth it. Can't wait to make another for the next client, NOT!

This is an ipad shoulder bag in the making, should be done in a few days. Just a sneak peak to wet your appetite a little. Turning it right side out is going to be exciting, can't wait.

I think I would just give her that one.

Are you still looking for someone to stitch your knife sheaths?

. I usually do the same cover for the new world translation, it's the same size all over the world. Haven't had a request for other Bibles.

I have made quite a number of Bible covers, in fact, I have them in eight states and five different country's. My first cover is still in use after thirty two years and has very little wear even though it is used everyday. Made to fit the New World Translation Bible, please enjoy.

Yes, I cut strips of leather about 3/8" and weave them over and under the center piece, glueing each piece as I go along. Then I glue the entire piece onto a larger piece of black thin leather, then fold the black over the edge's and sew.

This bracelet is hand sewn using buffalo and kodiak leathers. Your comments are welcome. Thank you.

Not as hard as it looks Monica

This bracelet is one of about five or six that I have made this way. I like to do them in such a way that no metal from the snaps is exposed or touching your skin. Each piece is individually cut and attached with contact cement, then trimmed and sewn. Three different leathers are used here, the thinner and softer, which is the purple in this case, is used as the one that is against your skin. Hope you all enjoy my designs and feel free to leave your comments.

I made this bag for my metal detecting finds. It snaps over the belt, holds my Altoids to hold down the dry mouth and it holds my glasses as well. The leather used is, suede, buffalo and veg tan. The art work I burned and stained in veg tan.

My business cards finally came, so I decided to make a holder to carry them around and pimp my stuff. Thanks again for your comments.

Thank you all for your comments. Does anyone know why they won't let you put more then one item in this area?

I made this hunting bad from a thick buffalo leather with a thinner black buffalo leather for the pockets. The pocket closures are made from elk antler and I used elastic cord for keeping the pockets closed. The hoof prints are from the same black buffalo and the elastic cord's knots are hidden behind the hoof prints. The art work of the deer scene I burned onto the front. Hope you enjoy. Would love to find a site where people are interested in having items like these made. I like to get together with people and design what they want and add my ideas to it, to come up with a real unique design. It wouldn't be the first, but people just stopped buying due to the economy. Anyway, enjoy your craft.

I designed this bag for my personal fishing needs and it serves it's purpose. The fish is cut out with a scalpel and I layed purple metallic leather behind the base leather and sewed. The worm on the hook, I burned into the leather. The bronze bass figurines I purchased from eBay, installed threaded rivets with epoxy and installed on each pocket.

I like the hawk, it's nice, but if you made the white thread dissapear and use black instead, attention wouldn't be focused on the outer edge of your work. Just a thought, hope you don't mind.

Go onto Custommade.com and you can get leather craftsmen to give you quotes on making you one.

Monica, if you want to try something really cool, listen up! Anything you buy from a thrift or other means and it seems to look like it cannot be mounted onto leather, imagine drilling into the object about 1/8" and then you can epoxy the two part threaded rivets, that's how I attach a lot of my things to the leather and if you have room for two of them, use one for the female end of a snap. Sounds harder then it is, believe me.

No I do not, they are done for me and then I add they inspire me to put a bag, pouch or other design to them.

I make quite a number of items and I like to incorporate these beautiful hand carved deer antler figurines into my designs, it actually helps with the sale of them. It also opens up new ideas for custom orders.
