  1. didn't know there was an adult section but when you get the chance, I'd like to take a look around, you know, just for ideas of course
  2. for a first project, you definately had more guts then I did. I started small with key fobs and lighter cases and the biggest I've done was the slouch bag which other then the handle, was just cutting and sewing. They look great.
  3. almost the same way. I glued everything first and then sewed it. if you were to take a piece of paper, lay it landscape and cut 2 slits 2" each from the bottom and the edges, to the top you would have the only cuts I made until I did the flap.
  4. that part I did with a machine but basically I overlapped the 2 pieces I was using for the front and back and cut it so the extra would fold in on itself to give it a flat bottom and more support on the bottom.
  5. I'm a newbie too, only been working with leather about 4 months and there are much better out there to look up to
  6. thanks, having the overstitch tool and a nice sharp punch made life so much easier then trying to do the stitches by eyeball. and yeah, that stitching going from side to side did add a nice touch to it, too bad it's a crappy knife in it :/
  7. got a point there. I set up my "work bench" right beside my living room window and things do look a lot nicer
  8. I started with an idea in my head and 2 different pieces of leather (18"x18") that I thought complimented each other for colors and ended up with this. Special thanks to the staff at Tandy Leather for the idea on the handle idea
  9. nothing fancy but it turned out a lot nicer then the one I did with the utility leather I had. It's amazing how much easier things get once you start building up your tool collection
  10. looks good but I notice you are like me, take pics of projects on your bench with tools laying around. Is that a sub-conscious thing we do to prove we did the work?
