My latest, and most complex, tooled cover to date. Really happy with how the Roma Shoulders from Tandy tooled. I am still brand new to this craft and it was my first time using a premium leather and tooling something this complex. 


Sorry, no pictures with the bible inserted. This was made based on specifications given as it was to be gifted and turned out to be an exact fit *whew*

Very nice work.  Love it. I know what you mean about it fitting. I did a Bible cover once by using someone else's measurements and it was to large.  There was only lettering on the outside and I was able to cut it down and re-stitch it.  That Eagle looks great as well as your lettering.

Looks Great! I have a request for one of these and have never done one before. I was wondering what kind of leather to use, I'll need to check this out at Tandy. Nice work.

Thanks guys! Yeah I kind of held my breath when they fit it. :-)

Any good quality veg tan leather will work nicely in the 4-6 range. I think this leather is 5/6.
