For my bestest guitar strap customer. This is his third one.

No hardware, adjusts from 48 to 56

Arrowhead basketweave and san marcos border

Mahogany edge, saddle tan body

Made a few (probably many!) mistakes. I have GOT to practice my freehand lettering....but all in all...

Hope you like it.

Nice job! Wish I could master that arrowhead basketweave pattern... I've tried with poor results, guess I'll keep at it! ;)

Very nice, I hadn't seen that arrow head basket weave pattern. I got to get out of the cave more often.

Thanx abn. That pattern is the easiest BW, to me. It's just a matter of matching legs, and hitting the center point. There's very little lining up to do, like a regular BW. The hardest part is getting the correct angle so the edge line leg will be blended by the border tool, just takes a few seconds of experiment on an equal sized scrap piece. This is the second time that I've heard people having a bit of trouble getting this one down, next time I do one, I'll take some pictures of the process.
