Excell Report post Posted June 8, 2009 A few pictures of a wedding gift I just finished for my Sister-in-Law and her Husband-To-Be. The finish was done in several layers to give the antique look. It is a collaborative piece - the artwork is mostly from my beautiful Wife - combined with art I adapted from a couple of Lora Irish's collections. (I wish I had the artistic talent my Wife has in her little finger!) The finished piece is 20"x16" to the edge of the celtic border. I haven't done any serious leatherwork for almost twenty years - this was a request, and quite the project to get my hand back in. I discovered that I missed it much more than I could ever have realized. (The people on this board have something to do with that, by the way - I found the board and started itching to pick up my swivel knife again. Thank you all.) Comments, suggestions encouraged. Thanks for taking the time to look! Matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Aulus Report post Posted July 9, 2009 Nice Idea! You should work on your beveling. Try to use a checked Beveler for less marks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
