applique Lacing: Belt

[jbird]

So there been some talk lately of applique lacing and luke got that name plate that had it so I thought I would post this belt I did recently to show what I do with this technique. it is 8 oz on the front side and 6 oz leather on the back both sides are finish grain or smooth out hand sewn finished with british tan using my air brush. the keeper is engraved with the name of owner.

any way thought you would like to see it

PS I should mention this was done for a good friend as a gift after surgery she is well now

Nice belt Josh............what width lacing did you use on it.

(ps if you want to do something different try this lacing on a HatBand )

Josh, I have to say the quality of your work is really starting to get that professional touch. Clean, straight, well-slicked edges, even stitching, the braid is nice and even... your determination to pursue excellence is inspiring.
