  1. Just finished this hinged jewellery box. My sweetie did the fabric needle work.
  2. Wow! Looks great!
  3. Stunning work! So clean … beautiful stitching. Congratulations and thanks for sharing
  4. Thanks everyone. I appreciate your kind comments :). Sheilajeanne, it is all hand stitched. I used left and right pricking irons. The edges of the sides are mitred to approximately 22.5 degrees. I used a French edger for the mitered edge.
  5. .. probably the most complex project I have done. The concept was taken from a case featured in one of Al Stohlman’s books. (My sweetie did the needlework)
  6. They look great! Thanks for sharing, Mike!

  8. Looks great, Mike! Great to see you back at it!
  9. Nice work! Thanks for sharing
  10. Your booth and work looks amazing!
  11. Looks good … congrats! If the upright pieces, rather than being straight, went up at a slight angle, like a V, you could make a leather loop to fit over the jaws and uprights. It would slide up and down … slide it up to tighten the jaws and down to loosen them. I have used this method on my stitching clam for years and it works great.

  13. Wow! Looks great!

  17. This is a wall plaque I did that commemorates the year that the recipient marched with the Toronto Optimists Drum and Bugle Corp. I wrapped a 3/4” piece of “good both sides” plywood; front, back and sides. The diameter of the image is 5 1/2” and is the Drum & Bugle Corp’s logo.
  18. Wow! That looks amazing … thanks for sharing
