    Helmet shield

    Hey guys, I had posted in the how do I do that section asking about doing a helmet shield in the "Boston" style. I've never had the opportunity to make a shield before and didn't know what that meant. I was able to get some help and make it and realized I didn't post it here so that being said may I present to you my first helmet shield!! I know it's not perfect, lol, no need to point out the obvious, but the client was happy with it and I learned a lot! Thanks for looking!
  3. I thought it was just the outline shape of the shield as well but the image he sent as an example the top of the shield is "puckered" not really sure how else to articulate it...I'll try and upload the pictures he sent me....
  4. Thank you, sorry if this was the wrong forum
  5. Thank you very much!! That's the way I usually do it, had no idea about prefixing a search with image. I learn something every day! Lol
  6. Same here lol. But my original question was about making the, as it was described to me as a "boston style" shield not necessarily a shield from Boston. Personally I didn't know there were different styles
  7. Never knew that about starting with image, even after what 20 years of googling lol. Thank you
  8. Does anyone have any leads they could point me towards on making a Boston style firefighter helmet shield? I was contacted on Facebook about making one. Not going to lie, I have a list longer than my leg of things I want to make and shields are on there but haven't as yet had a chance to do so. Any help to figure out if it's something I can manage would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!!
  9. I've taken a shot at dopp bags a couple of times but they never come out worth a damn especially if I try to do the lining. Wish mine came out half that good...I should also mention that mine are hand sewn so maybe that's a reason too, idk...

    Weird inspiration

    Honestly most people know what it is and actually like the idea
  13. Thank you! Definitely something I wouldn't have thought to do, thank you. Thank you!
  14. I made a belt with that stitching a while back myself...I know how much goes onto the stitching by hand lol nice work!!
  15. Thank you.
