Members Double U Leather Posted November 12, 2013 Author Members Report Posted November 12, 2013 Akhenaten....sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. That quilt pattern as I call it, is done by using a wing divider to mark the lines, cut the lines with a hollow ground blade swivel knife, and then a seeder at every intersection. Hope that helps, but if you've found something that works for you, way to go. Be blessed. Quote
Chief31794 Posted November 12, 2013 Report Posted November 12, 2013 Double U, As usual, I'm amazed. This is absolutely first rate, excellent quality in the construction, carving and design. Love the light color touches, never liked the full color much but using blue for highlights on flowers etc is just the right amount and the product screams elegance. Chief Quote
Members vmaniqui Posted November 14, 2013 Members Report Posted November 14, 2013 Beautiful. How I wish I have that talent. I am new at leather crafting and I am surely seeing so many nice works and many talented people here. I hope I could at least be able to absorbed even 10% of what you guys got. Quote
Members Double U Leather Posted November 15, 2013 Author Members Report Posted November 15, 2013 Dang.........thanks for the nice words. I'm honored to have my peers think highly of my work. Chief....your words really mean a lot to me, especially the elegance part. That is exactly what I was going for. Not gaudy, not over the top, but functional and artistically appealing. Vman....just hang in there. If you could only see some of my early stuff....LOL. Like anything else, it just takes time and practice. The more time spent, the better the result. Quote
Members RogerNixon Posted November 15, 2013 Members Report Posted November 15, 2013 Excellent work on the case. You have every right to be proud of that I really like your attitude! Quote
Members Double U Leather Posted November 16, 2013 Author Members Report Posted November 16, 2013 Roger......thanks for your words. Over the years, I've had to re-shape my attitude to say the least. And, because I finally came to know God, my attitude has changed. Don't get me wrong, I can still get pretty self absorbed, followed by negativity, but for the most part I'm much better now!!. Thanks again for the compliments. They mean a lot. Quote

Members Jimbob Posted December 4, 2013 Members Report Posted December 4, 2013 Very nice tooling, stunning back round dye work and well designed...the center of the flowers should be shiny or a gem stone...that flat blue seems a bit odd....but by all means this is great leather craft in all its details !! Well done..... Quote
Members Coho Posted December 6, 2013 Members Report Posted December 6, 2013 Are you kidding me ??? That is BEAUTIFUL ! Quote
Members Jimbob Posted January 28, 2014 Members Report Posted January 28, 2014 makes me wanna cry and throw away all my leather tools.....buhhhaaaaaaaa....... Quote
Members Eaglestroker Posted January 28, 2014 Members Report Posted January 28, 2014 The good Lord has blessed you with a great talent, but we all know that didn't come without a lot of hard work. Absolutely fantastic. No words can describe but it is a really awesome execution of design. Quote
