Wow fantastic and you are encouraging me to jump right into trying the style on bigger projects. Nothing ventured nothing gained I guess.

I have done some small test on with a hybrid of sheridan style flowers in a Stohlman holster floral pattern using the new tandy Sheridan tools and an epipen/med case with sheridan style flowers and leaves and was pleased with the results. I took it real slow and I found the Chan Greer books and DVD on making a note book cover very informative and useful.

With your example of intestinal fortitude my next real Sheridan style work (pattern and tools) will be a bible cover in the next few weeks or so. I will be using a pre-existing pattern as well...not ready to take on layout.....that still looks like weird science/art/geometry I am not quite ready for yet.

Can't wait to see what you do next!

Your work looks good. I will agree with you one the layout part. I have tried sever times to draw up a sheridan pattern, but everytime it looks bad. I have read through the sheradin book several times (I forget the name) but I just cant seem to get it straight.

I would love to see the bible cover, you mentioned. I am about to start a bible cover as well for a christmas gift.
