BearMan Posted June 22, 2009 Report Posted June 22, 2009 Hi everybody, I received sooooo many nice compliments on the checkbook,,, even before it was finished,,, I just had to send some pictures of it completed. I've been making & getting better equipment to do the stitching with. My stitching needed some work. Sooo I replaced my Awl, & got some good needles. Studied & figured out some things,,, & now I have some hand stitching that I feel pretty good about. I've also been paying attention to a few ,,,, very few people,,,, Ok,,, just 1 Person when it comes to improving my edges,,, Thanks Bob,,, ) How'd I do?? As I said before, this is an adaptation of an ol' Stohlman design. If anybody wants a copy, I'd be more than happy to share. Thanks for looking!! Ed the"BearMan" Quote

Contributing Member Crystal Posted June 23, 2009 Contributing Member Report Posted June 23, 2009 Beautiful, Ed! I like the little curlie-q coming off the tip of that flower petal. Little touches like that really show how much thought goes into your pieces. Count me as one of your many fans! Crystal Quote
