BearMan Posted November 10, 2012 Report Posted November 10, 2012 Hi Everybody, Here is the piece I entered in the IFOLG show. I very happily won First place in the Masters catagory. I feel very fortunate to come away with anything, concidering what I was up against! I recieved some very nice comments from Akiko Okada, & George Hurst, the people that judged my item. All the colors were done with spirit dyes. Thanks for looking,,, Ed the"BearMan" Quote Ed the"BearMan" polarb1717@aol.com Beary: BearMauls@yahoo.com http://tinyurl.com/BearMauls "The Best tooling mauls available today!"

Members CowboyDan Posted November 15, 2012 Members Report Posted November 15, 2012 I LOVE the way you used the basketweave stamp on the back in curved sections! I may have to do something like that on some future project. What did you do for the inside? I'd like to make a notebook, but haven't seen a good design for the inside to start with. And I don't know exactly what I want to be able to draw one up. Quote

Members CurtisKemper Posted November 27, 2012 Members Report Posted November 27, 2012 I hope to one day be able to do this type of dye/staining, carving and tooling. It is so impressive to me to see such a work of art come out of a piece of leather. Quote
