Members rawr66 Posted December 21, 2014 Members Report Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) Here's a beaded bracelet I just finished. Made with 4-5 oz vegetable tanned shoulder. Dark part is Fiebings chocolate dye and the light part is Fiebings tan. This is my second time trying this beading technique. It's very easy, but time consuming. I thought stitching took long, but you really need patience for this. Unfortunately since I used my pricking iron to punch the holes, you can't do close stitch lines so it's best used for a singular line design. Edited December 21, 2014 by rawr66 Quote
Members rawr66 Posted December 21, 2014 Author Members Report Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) The pouch is the first time I tried beading. It's made with lamb and lined with purse lining, and 2-3 oz vegetable tanned side for the paw. I was making the paw and the pouch simultaneously, and then I decided to mate the two together. My hands hate me now. The paw was added after the pouch was made and turned right side out, so I was sitting with some needle nose pliers for a few hours trying to stitch it together.

Members HorseHerder Posted December 21, 2014 Members Report Posted December 21, 2014 Well done, they both look really sharp! I've only just begun my first attempts at hand-stitching this week, so I can't imagine how much patience the bear paw must have taken. Are those Fiebings oil dyes? Again, congratulations. Quote
