I only stitch by hand , so not much help . I just wanted to welcome you to the forum, someone with machine knowledge will chime in soon. My gut feeling is it would not work for what you are wanting to do,more of a home clothing type machine.

You have more patience, than I. Very nice work my friend.

You did a great job on the diamond design. It looks clean, and well plotted. In my mind if you asked me to use blue thread with brown, I would say it would not work, but it did!

Not too much at all. I think it is spot on!

Absolutely beautiful work. Inlays still intimidate me .I quess it's time to get Lisa's book. Keep up the great work and be sure to post pics, love it!

Happy Birthday! Thanks for the pictures, I went to his web site and the half mod 2 is pretty awesome as well. Enjoy your new knife.

Thanks for the tool number, time to go shopping.

Very nice, they go well together! What stamp did you use on the border at the stitch line?

Go to Springfield Leather. Kevin the owner is a major rock hound. I know they (or Kevin himself) would be able to get you going in the right direction. I hope this helps.

WOW! That is awesome Stewart!

Tisk ,Tisk. .No seriously I wish I had done one before you . LOL.

What do you use to neutralize the smell of vinegroon on the leather? Some say baking soda. I have no clue, what works for you?

Ray's web site is now Exotic Leathers by Ray. It no longer is just ostrich that he sells.

OstrichleathersbyRay.com. I have bought several legs from Ray and they have been great and the price is right.

Thank you for all your hard work and patience. That is a "Mega" amount of research!
