Ambassador Beaverslayer Posted June 1, 2007 Ambassador Report Posted June 1, 2007 Again, a beautiful job. You will have to change your Leatherwork Specialty from "learning" to "top quality" chaps & leather carving. Great work.

Members Cowboy Crafts Online Posted June 5, 2007 Members Report Posted June 5, 2007 Flea, Looks like your getting the hang of the chap making. If I could offer one thing, it looks like your collars 'thats what I call them' the tooled top peices are a little too deep. It is ok when someone is standing but when they set in a saddle they are going to bulge right in that front area. On the chaps I make I make my collars no more than 3". I think your doing a great job so dont take this the wrong why, just something I learned from making lots of chaps. I hope now that I got moved back in after the floods here in MO that I can get somethings done and posted. I have a few pair of chaps to make up. Ashley Quote

I hadn't thought about the length there. I will ask how they fit when in the saddle and now try a shorter yoke. I appreciate all the helpful tips I can get. Thanks Stephanie Quote
