I really like the work. totally amazing!

Look like bug bites to me........let me guess......Tandy??? This can happen on many hides.......the cows are not in a bug free environment!

Looks good to me......I would be careful and make the stitching straight and even as it will show up really well on the dark hide. JMHO

I want the harness like that...........and you can send the dog with it too.....Looks nice

the stain is a liquid that you would put on by either dipping, sponge, dauber, etc....I imagine if you thinned it enough you might be able to spray it.....I don't use it so I am not sure... the finish is a paste...........I use this one exclusively..........but not the black. The paste is less messy and easier to get a uniform color with it. JMHO Mike

Mike2 always does what he is told............ROFLMAO!!! Especially if Sylvia tells him to!!

GO CHANCEY GO!!!

I would try acetone on a cloth and see if it will remove the contact cement.......should work and try not to get any on the finish or it will remove that too. JMHO and FYI..........I was born in Amarillo!!

Tanner's Bond works well and dries fairly clear.........and it will not need so heavy a coat

Dang it...........I am working the whole time!

The spider looks good. I would be concerned with a dark color that would make the legs harder to see. Just about any color would work as long as it is lighter than the legs..JMHO

maybe it is "corazone" meaning heart in spanish??

I recieved the pattern....I am trying to redraw it , but like Sylvia said, there is no "flow". Give me some time and I will see what I can do to change it so that there is a visible flow. The way it is now it is just looking pieced together. I will try to keep a similar layout and also add "flow"

Seam tape from a fabric store???

the stuff you are looking for particle..............is liquid latex

try looking for a foil embosser like those used on Books

Nice work....Ugly model....LOL

I would be interested in something like that

white dye will work over vinagroon......as it will not bleed.....being that it is a light color over a dark color it may take several coats to cover .... but it will work...................................ask me how I know!! Vinegroon is a treatment that changes the leather chemically.....................it is not a dye!!! If you were going to use dye instead of vinegroon.....................disregard what I said and listen to the other guys because that is correct for dyed work

thanks for the info

I have the book.....which page is this design on?
