Members David8386 Posted March 29, 2013 Members Report Posted March 29, 2013 Nice job as usual, good flow to your design and like the sunflowers. David Quote
Members WWH Posted March 29, 2013 Members Report Posted March 29, 2013 I really like your flowers; they are beautiful. The flowers with the sideview turned out very nice as well. Quote
Members Double U Leather Posted March 29, 2013 Author Members Report Posted March 29, 2013 Thanks again for the nice words. It humbles me to think others view my work as good. David...I really appreciate your comment. I don't know how to respond to the "as usual" part, other than to say thank you. I guess my "as usual" part is that there are things I'd do different next time, and "as usual" a few oops's in it as well...LOL. WWH...thank you also. The side view flowers and the "under view" flowers were a bit of a challenge. I never thought about having to change all of the "filler" type flowers to match the main flowers. With what I do typically, it's pretty much a variation of the same thing. Since I'd never done sunflowers, I didn't have any "filler" things in mind until I got to those spots and then all of a sudden I realized I had to get a bit creative. I'm glad you think they turned out well. Stay blessed gang. Quote
Contributing Member Bob Blea Posted March 29, 2013 Contributing Member Report Posted March 29, 2013 Fantastic work, especially for you first time around with a sunflower. I had seen several notebooks and saddles with sunflowers on them over the past couple of years and every time I think I should try making something with a sunflower. Yours turned out great! I see what you mean about the seeder too. I hadn't considered that little problem! Bob Quote There are always possibilities....

Members Double U Leather Posted March 30, 2013 Author Members Report Posted March 30, 2013 Bob, That little seeder problem wasn't the only one I found along the way...LOL. I sure enough had to think outside of my "typical" Sheridan box to get it done. But, I was happy with how it turned out. Thanks for the nice words. Quote
Members ReneeCanady Posted March 30, 2013 Members Report Posted March 30, 2013 Awesome! That came out really nice! Quote www.facebook.com/alteredleather
Members Double U Leather Posted March 30, 2013 Author Members Report Posted March 30, 2013 Thank you ma'am. The second one for this customer is turning out pretty fancy as well. I'm anxious to get it done and the entire order shipped. Have a blessed Easter! Quote
Members ReneeCanady Posted March 31, 2013 Members Report Posted March 31, 2013 Same to you Double U!! Not long ago we moved my Mother in for age/lonely issues so she is in one spare bedroom, and the other spare is my leather working room (I need a leather working house with all the stuff that's in there lol) anyway, my sister and her kids are here for Easter and we just put a big blow up air bed in that room for them. Needless to say I feel completely grounded like a 2 year old. I can't get to my toys!!! I am also anxious to get stuff done. Be sure to post pics of the second item, I would love to see!

Members Double U Leather Posted April 1, 2013 Author Members Report Posted April 1, 2013 LOL Renee... I hope now that the Holiday is over, you are able to play again! I'm blessed to have a shop that is separate from the house. In fact, my shop is like my "man-cave". I only wish it were bigger so I could have more toys. Quote
Members Aurelie Posted April 1, 2013 Members Report Posted April 1, 2013 Nice Job! i find those sunflowers really neat....and i really like them totally different from sheridan style.....but i really love it! Quote In for a penny, in for a pound....
