Members desertwastes Posted August 3, 2017 Members Report Posted August 3, 2017 Made my first wallet yesterday, I also tested out my new mini branding iron ; I think I held it on for too long, the branding is quite a bit thicker and darker than it should have been. But I designed it myself and I'm pleased with it otherwise! Leather is just scrap. My pricking irons were too small for the stitching I wanted, so I had to use the single. I tried my best to make the spacing consistent, but it's not perfect. Let me know what you think! Quote
Members Mattsbagger Posted August 3, 2017 Members Report Posted August 3, 2017 Good first go. Use a fork to mark your stitch line if using the single or awl. Maybe sand and burnish the edges a bit. He. Matt. Quote
