Double U Leather Report post Posted December 16, 2009 (edited) Here's the latest from the bench. It's going on a headboard for a lady. I'm in the process of making a reining horse for the footboard, but I just was so excited at the way this turned out, I had to show it off. Speaking of excited, I haven't sewn it, nor have I finished the edges. I just put the finish on it and was so thrilled I brought it in and took pictures. Maybe I'll post another pic when it's sewn and the edges done!!! Let me know what you think, and any critiques are welcome. Thanks.

Double U Leather Report post Posted December 16, 2009 Thanks WV. I'll try to remember to post a finished pic. It probably won't look alot different than it does now though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Double U Leather Report post Posted December 16, 2009 Thanks Ms. Bronco........I told the customer that part of the deal was that she was to send pics when she had it on the bed. I think it will look pretty spiffy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Double U Leather Report post Posted December 17, 2009 Thanks Hilly..........now if I can make the reining horse one look the same. Shoot, I'll be happy if the reining horse one is even similar.......LOL Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Double U Leather Report post Posted December 18, 2009 Here's the headboard piece with the edges sewn and dyed. It doesn't look all that much different than the original pic, but I promised I post when it was complete. And...I promise to post a pic when the lady attaches it to the bed. Thanks for looking.

Double U Leather Report post Posted December 19, 2009 Thats some nice work there. How is your customer planning on attaching it to the headboard? I'm not totally sure, but I think probably upholstery tacks. I've made several toilet seat covers and I always use that method to put 'em on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
