    Lilac handbag.

    Absolutely love your color choice, and you did a wonderful job ! I know how much work goes into making a project like that, it's not easy until you make a few, and even then it is challenging. Thanks for sharing it with us.
  8. You sir, are a true artist. Just magnificent!
  9. That is almost too nice too even use. Almost, LOL .
  10. I need much more practice doing the basket weave arrow head design, but boy, YOU NAILED IT! Very very nice work.
  11. Never ever would I have a customer do a pick up at my in home business, just for safety's sake. You never know who what trouble you may be inviting. Thanks for posting.
  12. This gives me an excuse to get back into archery. I have an antique Bear recurve that needs to be used. That is some real nice work!
  13. I appreciated you sharing the dye formula, I will give it try.
  14. Very nice tooling and I love color
  15. Great idea! A nice way to personalize a case. Take that to the range, and I bet you get a lot of interest.
  16. I had a similar occurrence, this past summer it got extremely hot and humid here in Florida, more than it usually does. My Tokonole looked like a curdled dairy product. And it smelled odd. Very close to your picture. I would bet it encountered extreme temp change.
  17. Very nice work on the dragon scales. Perfect fit for that knife, you really nailed it!
  18. The resources topic includes books and other sources for all kinds of things for leather crafting. I think you are right it should have its own area on the forum. Thanks for sharing this book.
  19. I find simple is easier. I use regular printer paper to draw or copy the design on. Then just case(wet) the leather. Set the pattern in position on the leather where you need it to be. Use painters tape to secure it from moving, then I use a regular pencil to follow the pattern, imprinting the design into the leather . Use a practice piece first to get the "feel for how much pressure to use to get a good impression. Then swivel knife away! Happy leather crafting!
