  1. From the album: Decatur IN Leather

    This was my first checkbook cover. I kinda guessed on the fit and it worked out pretty well. I started out with 6 oz leather for the main part and cut it 6.5" wide and 7.125 tall. each flap was 6.5" wide and 3" tall using 3 oz leather the stitching was 1/8" from the edge. i used clear olive oil, eco-flo oil dye (color: Wheat) and sealed with super sheen i choose the front because my sister, brother-in-law and nephew are all avid deer hunters. yes i know the stamping is not perfect on the front border, but now i know to start in the corners and finish in the center.... live and learn! Thanks for looking!
  2. Thank you yes it was nice to know everything worked out the first time i tried it after stitching it together
