Colman Posted October 5, 2008 Report Posted October 5, 2008 This is the first for me, the spur straps and coming up with a design that fit the space and transistioned from one area to another. It started out Sheridan stlye and then just kind of kept adding and tweaking until most of the areas were covered. I may just try basket weave on the next ones. Johnny Quote
TomSwede Posted October 5, 2008 Report Posted October 5, 2008 Very nice looking spur straps Johnny!! The black background is nice and makes it pop out more. I like those buckles, sweet and simple! Tom Quote
Contributing Member Crystal Posted October 5, 2008 Contributing Member Report Posted October 5, 2008 I agree with Tom - I like the black background, really makes your focal flower pop! Good job! Crystal Quote
Members AnnieO Posted October 6, 2008 Members Report Posted October 6, 2008 They look fantastic! I agree with the others - love the black, it really sets it off! Spur straps are on my list of "wanna make that". Where did you get the pattern? Did you make them double leather? Quote
Colman Posted October 6, 2008 Author Report Posted October 6, 2008 Tom, Crystal, Thanks for the comments. Annie, The straps are from a single layer of leather. The pattern is one I came up with, It is attached for all to use or modify as needed. I did add a few additional leaves on the final pattern. Johnny Quote
carr52 Posted October 6, 2008 Report Posted October 6, 2008 I really like those. I've been wanting to make a pair myself. What weight leather did you use? Tom Quote
