Yeah Chief +++++++++++ An Excellent demonstration of your work. Clean and neat ! I try to acheive your level of lacing each and every time, I lace, and as Dwight says I need to refresh, cuz I had slept since then. Ho Ho Good looking wallet as usual,

Monica, my first glance at your dads bag was a great vision. and too, I admit and agree the modifications look great too ! No matter if you changed it for him or not , Im sure it will suit him, and serve him well for some time to come. And the stitching on the outside, stands tall by itself, A good look ! Really though in, IMHO, it looks great either way !. Now your Sister and Dad both, have Monica bags, I still wanta make one, when I can slow up a bit ! Great work !

I really like the added insulation idea, and the turned or rolled edge is a great idea too . My Christmas presents just might even get better than my first thoughts. Thanks for these too !

I really like the simplicity !

I been thinking about beer coozies lately too,, for Christmas presents, yours look nicely made ! are those for cold liquids or hot ? I like your basket weave holsters as well, Even the bike seat looks great !

The contrasting color from canvas makes these pop ! Nice idea.

I like all of these , as they seem very sturdy , I especially like your long wallet ! I make long wallets too, but I can honestly say yours look more professional. Good work !

I think its great to make or create from out of the wild blue yonder. Ingenuity at its finest ! Nice job !

Worthy wins Indeed, your pieces are excellent ! Their beautiful, and well constructed, even if not machine stitched ! ho ho ho ! You deserve all your Congratulations. Great work !

I too ! like the idea of a mystery braid as a purse handle. You have quite the minds eye. and the contrasting bottom looks fashionable with the handle, Nice idea Joe !

Well deserved honors, As before, it is a great looking piece - Congratulations !
