aguilerag Report post Posted March 19, 2015 This is my first attempt at making spur straps. I had a piece of leather that was not very good so I just did this for practice to try to learn a pattern. If anyone can give some advice on how and where to get patterns or where a good place to start would be I would appreciate it. Thank you Gabriel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lithops Report post Posted March 21, 2015 It"s a very nice start ! I got a few patterns from a saddlery where I use to work, but most of them I did get them from Leather crafters and saddlers journal ( http://www.leathercraftersjournal.com/ ) and Tandy. They come often with explanation & pictures, so it's help a lot . In the journal they always have nice little to bigger project that can teach you something, even about saddlery or tacks. Have fun !!! Lithops Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
