This is the finished handbag/camera case I posted bits of here a while back. My first try of hand sewing together leather with an awl and geeezzz is my hands soar (and red like a lobsters tail)

The pattern of the bag and of the decorations is my own. I dyed the dragons first with spirit dye in blueish green and orange tones, then had Tandys antiquing (the old one that is impossible to get anymore) over it to tone it down.

Tina, I have to agree with Tazz, everything you do looks great! I like how you tied in so many different things and made it all look good together.

Thank guys:-)It's sometime hard to know how you're doing, I don't have anything to compare it with except for photos here (which is greatly appreciated) I need to drag myself to a leather show somehowe, some day:-)

Great Thank you Clay:-)This is the third try of it, I riped it appart 2 times before this version and I added the thingies at the sides for the strap.

now that's some great work! I think the fuzzy sides are a bit out of place, but the work and design are mighty impressive!

Not only should you drag yourself to a leather show, you should enter your work. It would be a treat for all the people that attend to see the kind of work you do! There's one coming up soon too.

Ahh så inihelvittes läcker!!!!!

Yeah girl, you sure made something very appealing to me here! I get a medieval sensation out of this one.

The decorative borders are soooo nice with that triweave stamp, I'm just gonna have to steal that idea sometime, lol.

The dragons are way nice, don't tell me you drew up them yourself aswell?

I'm all curious about the rings on top, did you buy them as is or maybe made it yourself with lace?? They look awsome!

The lock is to die for, wow.

WELL DONE!! :clapping:

Thats scary things Clay. You know how it can be...Your often your worsed enemy:-(

And here I am Drac, just loving my furry things :-) (it's actually "hair on cow") It started out being an option to wetforming leather (very intimidating to a newby) so I started to think of what I could use instead and voila, my furry friends *S*
