The mules are Bill Gomer patterns. They were in the Leather Crafters and Saddlers Journal a couple of years ago. I don't know if Bill has pattern packs for sale or not. I might have an extra around here that I could send you.

I've never seen the skinny horse. He looks worse than my old horse!

- take a pic and change it to greyscale

and then play with brightness and contrast.........

Thanks a lot, Johann! My Photoshop is good for play with brightness and contrast with the mule and I get a good pattern, but that way of work is not always operative for a pattern.

Thanks Joe-rcsaddles, I asked them by e-mail.

Brian Stelzel of The Leather Crafters & Saddlers Journal emailed me and they have patterns for the two mule pictures but not the una copa mas picture. The patterns for the mules are located in the May/June 2007 issue. This issue is in stock and available for purchase at a cost of $7.50 (includes shipping in the USA).

leatherworker.net forum is the best, wonderful!!!! In a few hours I got the patterns. Thanks for your help, folks.

Playing with greyscales and filters in Photoshop I drew these sketchs. I'm not sure if these photos are a good pattern. What do you think?

Inkscape is a free program for vector graphics. It has pretty easy feature to let you take a raster graphic (.jpg) and vectorize it in 2 color (or more).
