Contributing Member ClayB Posted March 1, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted March 1, 2008 Participation in the February carving challenges was really better than I had expected, so we're going to try it again. This month's pattern is a Sheridan style corner pattern from Clay Miller. This pattern can be used on any project of your choice, or just on as a practice piece. As with last month, you can carve this however you like, modify the pattern to suit your needs or style. I hope that some of you will give it a try and share your pictures with us.

Contributing Member ClayB Posted March 1, 2008 Author Contributing Member Report Posted March 1, 2008 There are no winners. This is just for fun. I'll try and get a figure carving pattern up soon. ClayB Badlands Leather Art blog Badlands Leather Art Website
SCOUTER Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 Ok Clay this is embarrassing but how do I resize this pattern down to like 50% or 75%... I printed it out and it would not fit on a normal page. Thanks!
Ambassador leatheroo Posted March 2, 2008 Ambassador Report Posted March 2, 2008 here ya go scouter, i resized it so it is now 15cm x 21cm is that small enough? "]http://leatheroo.blogspot
Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted March 2, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted March 2, 2008 Hey, no fair! I was gonna resize it.... Thanks Leatherloo, ya saved me some time! Scouter, I pulled the page to a graphics prog, and it already is the 'right' size....it seems okay if you save it to a file. I had a blown up image too, trying to print from the screen (here), but once I downloaded the file, it printed straight away, with no resizing needed.

TracyMoss Posted March 4, 2008 Report Posted March 4, 2008 Here is what I have accomplished so far this week. I'm thinking on adding some antique, but I wanted to show how it looked through my process. You may notice that mine looks a little different than the pattern provided, but the overall design is in the same ballpark. TM Drawing out design on leather. Carving design. Adding thumbprint. Beveling lines. Background and detail stamping with decorative cuts. Oiled.
Contributing Member Clay Posted March 5, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted March 5, 2008 Very cool! I have been nervously waiting to see how everyone does this pattern. good job. ClayM. Clay Miller
