Contributing Member Jordan Posted February 20, 2008 Author Contributing Member Report Posted February 20, 2008 Another book cover, alot simpler design on this one, my stitching is improving but messed up the finish it was supposed to be smoke black hilite but I ended up putting way to much neetsfoot on it. Now I know to use it sparingly LOL. Quote
Moderator bruce johnson Posted February 20, 2008 Moderator Report Posted February 20, 2008 Jordan, The Bible cover turned out great. Ya know, I never looked twice at that cross meander stamp when I see it by itself. Seeing it done gives me a new appreciation for it - good job. Regarding the other cover with the heart on the front. I don't always think outside the box. I am sitting there thinking "OK, what IS that heart stamp?" Then I saw the hourglass meander in the corners and it hit me. Good job. That can't have been real easy to keep lined up, and you pulled it off like champ. Congrats. Looking forward to seeing more.

TracyMoss Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 You've just reminded me that my grandmother was hinting at a bible cover over christmas. I keep forgetting. Guess I'll have to fit that one in here pretty soon, maybe in time for Easter Sunday. Quote
Contributing Member Jordan Posted February 20, 2008 Author Contributing Member Report Posted February 20, 2008 Thanks guys, the hearts were neat looking when I saw them on the tandy site, they have a short tutorial pdf for download so I gave it a try and yes keeping it all lined up is a real bear.

Actually the pdf was sent in their email to me not on their site it has property rights stuff at the bottom so I don't think I can post a link....Jordan Quote
Members Warren Posted February 21, 2008 Members Report Posted February 21, 2008 That tutorial is on the website also or was . I downloaded it from there. You can also get it already printed out at the TLF if they have them. Every time I went in they were out so I got it from the site. Warren Quote
Contributing Member Jordan Posted February 21, 2008 Author Contributing Member Report Posted February 21, 2008 whoever thunk it up must have a very interesting thought process, to get hearts from an hourglass. Quote
