Hello Dear Leatherworkers,



I recently finished my first long wallet. I ruined everything on this project. For examples the stiches. I think the overall look is good but I learn again a lot. The next one will be better! ;)


The little birds are burned. :)

Funny that you feel you've "ruined everything"... I was just thinking "everything looks great." I know how frustrating it can be to see a result that wasn't what I was after (or a little slip of a knife or a crooked stitch line), but the finished project seems to come out fine. Anyway, I think yours looks great-- nice work, and it's cool to see birds on leather. Not something you see everyday!

I agree totally with what Tanner has just said. If that's "ruined work" I can't wait to see something from you that isn't!!

On the second picture you can see how to stich together the wallet.

Have a nice day! I will post some new stuff soon. :)

Hahahah... normally, I'm a sucker for staring at the stitching to see if there is something I can learn from to improve my own work. This time, I was so entranced with the imagery in the leather that I didn't even realize it was stitched until I read the comments! Great work, and the stitching is pretty dang good too, so no frettin there! thanks for sharing!
