Well, I started this binder 2 years ago as a competition piece. Needless to say, it got put off to the side as orders started piling up. But I finally finished it. So I thought I would share.

Design is colored with spirit dye.

The inside is covered with a nice soft goatskin suede left in its natural color.

The edges are braided in a two tone color with kangaroo lace.

the only thing about this binder is there were a couple scars that was hidden on the leather that didn't come out until I put the finish coat on it. (Pisses me off) I put up some pics of the scars, they are not real noticeable, but you can see them none the less.

A real nice binder looks to me like 2 years paid off in spades.

Beautiful job, Shawn! Lots of work go into those. Roses are difficult to tool and yours looks really good. I hope you don't wait another two years to show us another one!

My wife likes that one.

The two tone lacing really brings everything together.

I guess I will be commissioned to make one of those in the near future.

Nicely done.
