Members YinTx Posted December 1, 2016 Members Report Posted December 1, 2016 I like your use of contrasting colors. What did you use to dye your orange sketch book cover? would like to see photos of the inside, too! Keep up the nice work.

YinTx Thanks, it was dyed with diluted feibings pro oil red, probably more like salmon colour than orange in real life. I'll have to have a look to see if I have a photo of the inside as I've given this away so I no longer have it. Quote
Members stormcrow Posted December 2, 2016 Author Members Report Posted December 2, 2016 These are the only other photos of the sketch book cover I have they are not great at showing the inside but it was very basic just 2 pockets for the cover to slide in, one of which had a slot cut for the elastic. This was one of my first goes at a watch strap, its a bit chunky but the watch is quite a heavy beast so it doesn't seem to me to be too bad. Quote
Members stormcrow Posted December 2, 2016 Author Members Report Posted December 2, 2016 I've been thinking of having a go at a simple key ring fob and I saw one on pinterest of a heart that I thought I'd be able to do, so this is my attempt. Quote
Members YinTx Posted December 3, 2016 Members Report Posted December 3, 2016 I'd say you were able to! Came out nice! And thanks for posting the inside photos, well done, I like it.

Members stormcrow Posted December 4, 2016 Author Members Report Posted December 4, 2016 (edited) Just finished my latest wallet, it’s probably the best one I’ve done so far i.e. not as many mistakes as usual although I still managed a few. Made with .9mm goat and dyed with Fiebings Pro Dye. The outer is lined to a thickness of 2mm with bright pink leather I found it in Le Prevos scrap bin. I should probably get into the habit of asking them to identify the scraps I find just for future reference. Edited December 4, 2016 by stormcrow adding image Quote
