Starting A New Project Yesterday...
YinTx replied to YinTx's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Making a tiny bit of progress... http://leatherworker.net/forum/index.php?app=galleryℑ=29046 YinTx -
I wanted to practice hand stitching with my new tools, so I made a guitar strap. It is lined and has about 11 feet of stitching, so plenty of practice! It is the first guitar strap I have made, so please let me know what you think. I still have to put the slots on each end...

Crocodile Skin Front Pocket Wallet
YinTx replied to BigMatt's topic in Purses, Wallets, Belts and Miscellaneous Pocket Items
Is that crocodile or Caimen Alligator? I have some Caimen, and I am trying to figure out how to finish it, it has a very dull look like a veg tanned leather. How did you finish yours? Thanks, YinTx -

Jazzman, you are right. My problem is I don't have any Vergez Blanchards, lol. YinTx -
Thanks! I did put a double stitch at the top on each side for strength, since I expect that will be the area of highest stress. YinTx -

Just an image of the stitching irons to choose from. They all have very different characteristics, and are useful depending on what work I am doing. No Vergez Blanchards, though. Some day, maybe. YinTx© YinTx

Canvas and leather tote in progress. Learned a lot about what not to do on this one. Also, didn't hem the top correctly. But hey, prototype! YinTx© YinTx

From the album: Second Project: Phone Slip Case
Finally made a phone case for myself. This one I am pretty happy with, it fits my Samsung Galaxy. Stitching is #7 Dixon iron, 0.8mm Cream Tiger Thread. Improved around the corners, but still needs work! YinTx© YinTx
