Members Halitech Posted May 2, 2015 Members Report Posted May 2, 2015 Got a show coming up Saturday, should be a good seller Quote Every day you learn something is a good day. If you don't learn something every day, was it worth waking up for?
Members Halitech Posted May 3, 2015 Members Report Posted May 3, 2015 Here's my first one. Made from 4oz drum dyed leather and lined with pigskin. I had to slightly enlarge the pattern to fit my glasses and sew all the edges where I lined it. I like the way the white contrasts the black leather.

Members Grey Drakkon Posted May 4, 2015 Members Report Posted May 4, 2015 I think on the second page of the pattern's thread, Tboyce posted an enlarged version of the pattern. Quote "Everyone with telekinesis, raise my hand!" -Repairman Jack
Members thefanninator Posted June 1, 2015 Author Members Report Posted June 1, 2015 Anyone else finish the sunglasses case? Anyone have suggestions for June? Quote http://www.instagram.com/fannintexas/
Members TRHLeather Posted June 2, 2015 Members Report Posted June 2, 2015 A day late, a dollar short....the story of my life lol. I managed to put the finishing touches on this tonight. I showed a few people the in progress piece while I was partially finished the airbrushing and I have a few people asking for one for them.

Members MonicaJacobson Posted June 2, 2015 Members Report Posted June 2, 2015 Cool, TRH. I like the airbrushing. Chris, I'm bad - I didn't end up making one of these. I started thinking the center of this design really needed support, like this one by dextannery. or it would be hard to close it without damaging the glasses. So instead I made several based on Norman Cahn's design: You should look through dextannery's shop. There are some pretty cool ideas for covering large car keys.

Mark Peters Posted June 2, 2015 Report Posted June 2, 2015 Does cork count? I made this one first, intending to followup with a leather one, and just didn't get around to it. As Monica notes, a stiffener would be a good addition. Quote
Members TRHLeather Posted June 2, 2015 Members Report Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) Thanks Monica. A stiffener would also help it hold it's shape a little better. Mark, I love the look of the cork. Edited June 2, 2015 by TRHLeather Quote Thanks, Tom Hodder TRH Leather www.facebook.com/TRHLeather
