    Lacing

    Hello all,I'm thinking of making a key fob with lacing around the border. I have a couple of questions . 1- how do you space the lacing, 2-how do you start and finish the lacing. thanks
  8. sorry, had another question. how about if I want the image to have some black tint to it to make it stand out from a lighter background. thanks again.
  9. thanks for the responses. but those belts look awsome!
  10. thanks, what does case mean? I'm new at this stuff.
  11. Hello all, figure I'd try and do some stamping. but I don't seem to be getting consistent depth. any tips would be greatly appreciated. thanks
  12. Hello all, new to leathercrafting. want to know if you can dye/color with two different colors. I'm making a cell phone case and want the main body of case to be a lighter shade of brown, but want the border where the stitching is to be black. is this possible? also if I put a stamp design on it how can I make the imprint more distinguishable> thanks
  13. thanks for responding,.sorry for the poor photo quality. took it with my dumb phone.don't have a smart phone. thanks again
  14. Hello all, I just started leathercrafting and need some help on deciding what size and basketweave design for small cell phone case. I just want a traditional design, but I was on the tandy web site and there are several designs to choose from. thanks.
  15. thanks, but the case isn't finish yet. I just molded the front piece. but when I looked at it, it wasn't symetrical. this will be my first leather project. so I will have alot of learning to do.
  16. Hello all, newbie here. molded a case out of leather and now noticed that it's a little uneven. can I unmold it and reshape it? or am I better off starting with a new piece? the piece is already dry. thanks
  17. hope this picture comes out. http://i671.photobucket.com/albums/vv79/frontierman01/Mobile%20Uploads/0809131815_zpsa75f4aa1.jpg
  18. Hello all, decided to try my hand at leathercrafting because I couldn't find a cellphone case that I liked. anyway purchased a bunch of leather scraps from the local craft store. different colors and stiffness. my question is how can you tell what type of leather it is, and how do you determine the right leather for a project? thanks.
