ArtS Posted July 30, 2008 Report Posted July 30, 2008 (edited) I just finished this pulling collar for a friend to match her saddle. I used Wicket & Craig saddle skirting on the top and Siegel's chestnut latigo on the inside. The star concho is from HideCrafters.

Members craftsman827 Posted July 30, 2008 Members Report Posted July 30, 2008 Very Nice work ! Professional looking ! ! What machine did you use for sewing ? If you did use a sewing machine. I do all my stitching by hand,only because right now can't afford a machine. In the near future, I'm looking to purchase one. Just getting some imput on them. Quote

Contributing Member Crystal Posted July 30, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted July 30, 2008 Very sharp! I was going to ask the same thing as Craftsman - do you hand stitch or use a machine? Crystal Quote Black Dog Custom Leather

ArtS Posted July 30, 2008 Author Report Posted July 30, 2008 I used an Artisan 3000ArtSI hate to hand stitch so whenever I can I use my sewing machine - an Artisan 3000. It saves me a lot of time which I have too little of to spend on my leather work.ArtS Quote Art Schwab "You cannot teach a man anything.
