Was up most of the night playing with these. Got them done about, well what ever time. The edges arn't beveled yet in the pictures but I got that done before I took them to the hardware store. I used copper rivets and I think they look really nice. About half asleep right now. Enough talk. Here they are.

I guess the pictures didn't load. I knew I was tired when I posted this but I must have been asleep. OOPS.

Good job Tom.

The only thing I would do different is sew the loops on instead of the rivets. I would also reverse the rivets so that the flat side was on the top.

Thank you Bruce. I'm still learning more each time I do something.

I see now how that would look better. I am going to use this pattern again, probably this weekend and I'll do that. It's everybodys tips, hints, and critiques that help me to learn. Thank you.

Tom, you can grind them rivets off.....VERY CAREFULLY....to replace them or to replace/sew the new loop.
