I was looking for something new to make this week with some decent sized scraps I had left over from another project. I decided to make a cuff / watch strap for my Apple Watch. I think it came out alright but was looking for tips / suggestions on what I should work on, both design and leatherworking skills. Any input is appreciated.

Separate thread. Same name as this one but it says March instead of February.

Everyone's looks so good. Glad to be a part of this. I had little time to do this this month. So I just went straight from the pattern. Definitely needs something done with the edges but for a quick project came out decent. Made from some light clearance leather from Tandy and their mission grain lining.

When I use my laminater for small projects I keep the extra pieces and use them for ID windows.

Thanks for the update fanninator.

How well do the poundo boards work? Never thought they were needed but if they work well might be worth it for my sanity.

I live in a similar situation. I did fear the noise but I went around and asked my neighbors and they said it wasn't bad, but the people that live under me did say otherwise. I just work around their schedule, or warn them when I'll be starting something. I did make some items for their pets though, might have smoothed things over a bit.

There were several changes to last months, I don't see why this month would be any different.

LoudOne is faster than me

This being the February monthly pattern I'm sure y'all are not the only ones with this question. I know I was wondering the same thing when I started looking at making mine.

Steve there is already a February post started!

Nice choice! Can't wait to see everyone's work again.

Yeah I liked this process. Even though we are all making the same item there are many different results.

Thanks TRH, easier to get the cards out with the extra cuts. Never used that stamp before, picked it up shortly before leaving. I try to pick up a new stamp every time I go to Tandy, thought this one was interesting. I think the stamping could have came out a little better, but I was on the road for half the month so not too bad for the situation. Mobile leatherworking kits FTW!
