Members TomE Posted yesterday at 09:32 PM Members Report Posted yesterday at 09:32 PM I got tired of my stretchy work belt and phone clips that break, so I made a couple of accessories for my day job as assistant mucker at Maefield Farm. The belt is made from 10 oz Hermann Oak chocolate harness leather with a liner. The phone case is made from 5-6 oz "oil tanned" leather from the SB Foot Tanning Co. The case was constructed around a block of closed cell foam, glued and sewn at 10 stitches per inch. The edges of the belt and case are sealed with beeswax. Quote

Members TomE Posted 8 hours ago Author Members Report Posted 8 hours ago Thank you all for your kind remarks. I've learned a lot from the members of this forum. Sewing is almost as much fun as learning. Quote
