Members DwightT Posted November 14, 2022 Members Report Posted November 14, 2022 When I got back into leatherwork a few months ago, my wife felt threatened because she thought family and friends would like my stuff more than her quilting (poppycock). So we came up with a way to collaborate by combining her quilting with my leather and including our mutual interest in wine: quilted wine totes with a tooled leather base. It's been a lot of fun working with her on the design and fabrication. /dwight Quote

CFM chuck123wapati Posted November 14, 2022 CFM Report Posted November 14, 2022 very cool indeed! Quote Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms. “I won’t be wronged, I won’t be insulted, and I won’t be laid a hand on. I don’t do these things to other people, and I require the same from them.” THE DUKE!
Members Hags Posted November 14, 2022 Members Report Posted November 14, 2022 Very nice. My wife suffers from the quilting affliction as well. Quote Not so retired RN. Living on the Washington Peninsula.
Members Scoutmom103 Posted November 14, 2022 Members Report Posted November 14, 2022 Nice joining of your two hobbies to gift to others. Quote
Members DwightT Posted November 14, 2022 Author Members Report Posted November 14, 2022 Thanks for the kind words. We came up with a few different designs during the process, some more successful than others. With 7 kids between us and all their spouses, doing these bags gives us a way to give each kid something fairly unique for Christmas. Right now she is working on a patchwork leather bag using my chrome-tan scraps (that's what prompted her to organize my scrap bin the other day). It should be interesting once it's complete. /dwight Quote
