Tried the hand carved basket weave on this one. Its a rough test of concept and I made some errors, but its not bad. Still needs the holes punched, but you get the idea.

Some day, . . . I am going to perfect my basket weave stamping.

Probably right after I surf over Niagra Falls, . . .

Good job, . . . my friend, . . . you have patience I only think about, . . .

May God bless,

Dwight

Great Job! I like the design. Also, I love the thread you used. Isn't that the braided cord from Tandy? I think it is a great thread to work with and so many colors.

It took me a while to realize that the basketweave literally is "carved" as opposed to "stamped".

Fabulous work!

What kind of a beveler did you use? Is it triangle-shaped?

Thanks Rudi... It's a pointed beveler. And yes, it is.
