Members JustWakinUp Posted January 15, 2009 Members Report Posted January 15, 2009 Hey everyone, this one just came off the bench and will be on ebay this weekend sometime. This piece is made with a Black elephant body and a burgundy stingray inlay. accented with flourish art along the border with contrasting stitching. Plus a new red & black SKULL & crossbones LINING and holding everything where it belongs are two Fleur de Lis snaps and a wallet chain grommet. This wallet measures approximately 3.75 " x 7.5" Quote
AndyL1 Posted January 15, 2009 Report Posted January 15, 2009 Nice work (as usual from what I've seen on the forum!). I like the Fleur De Lis snaps a lot. I have a friend that wants some bracelets with a concho on it of that symbol. Do you know a good source for those? Preferably a screw-back style....... Awesome job again. Black and red/burgundy is a great color combo. Quote
Members CygnusX1 Posted January 15, 2009 Members Report Posted January 15, 2009 Nice work! What machine are you using for your stitching? Quote

Members JustWakinUp Posted January 16, 2009 Author Members Report Posted January 16, 2009 I wanted to add another picture, You can't really tell there is depth to the cross but it does sink into the stingray a bit. Hope this will help somewhat Quote
David Posted January 16, 2009 Report Posted January 16, 2009 Just, You have certainly found your niche. That is as nice as anything I've seen. Beautiful job. I love it. Dave Theobald Quote

Members HellcatLeathers Posted January 17, 2009 Members Report Posted January 17, 2009 Where did you get the Fleur snaps? I'm from Louisiana and I would kill to know the source for these....I've been trying to find them. Help! Quote
Members Butch Posted January 18, 2009 Members Report Posted January 18, 2009 Another homerun. Very nice work. Quote

The Hide and Leather House has fleur de lis snap caps on their Web site. Hide & Leather House. I have not ordered from them. Tim at Timco has a different fleur de lis snap cap. It's not pictured on his Web site, but I ordered some and it's a fleur de lis in a shield. Tim's a good guy and he will gladly send you a price list. In both cases these are just the snap cap. You will still need the other three pieces of the line 24 snap. Here's a notebook where I used the first fleur de list snap: Etsy Good Luck. Quote
RustyMelton Posted January 22, 2009 Report Posted January 22, 2009 Really nice, I heard the stingray is hard to work with. Is it sewn into place and what do you cut it with? Rusty Quote
