I finally worked up enough courage to show something I made.

This is a belt for my Mrs, Deb.

I was going for clean, elegant but robust lines. No fuss at all. There's no stitching, only creasing. This is the first thing I made using my new motorized burnisher for the edges.

The Art Nouveau buckle is a hundred years old.

The belt fastens at the back with a single snap and is fitted exactly to her size. She won't mind me telling you that, since the fit is so precise, I also made a small extender piece which snaps in, in case of Christmas dinner and other size altering events.

Cheers,

Karl

Lovely job, Karl, and a stunning buckle. You obviously have nothing to be ashamed of... apart from that hat! <grin!>

Hope you've both had a great day.

Karl,

Would you be so kind as to post a photo of the fastener?
