This one took me about two weeks to do although I didn't work on it every chance I had. About 10 hours of carving Quote
Members CaptQuirk Posted November 4, 2017 Members Report Posted November 4, 2017 I'm not a fan of the tassels, but that is a beautiful belt. Can't wait to see the holster that goes with it. Quote

The holster is carved and dyed just waiting for assembly when I get more thread Quote

Members battlemunky Posted November 5, 2017 Members Report Posted November 5, 2017 That is really something nice. Your coloring is great. Quote
Members Sheilajeanne Posted November 5, 2017 Members Report Posted November 5, 2017 Lovely work! What's a blood knot? Quote
Members battlemunky Posted November 5, 2017 Members Report Posted November 5, 2017 Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.....can we also discuss that little needle pack you have to the left side of the matt in one of the pics? I came back to look at this kickass belt and happened to catch that and now I'm a bit interested in whatcha got going on there. Quote

The slotted concho braid that looks like tassels.

A little scrap leather and no more finding needles in the carpet the hard way Quote
Members battlemunky Posted November 5, 2017 Members Report Posted November 5, 2017 I use one of those tomato/strawberry things....I may need to up my came a little and make one of those, it looks far handier than that tomato pin cushion. I may even embed a magnet in it too just for some extra retention. Quote
Members DavidRM Posted November 5, 2017 Members Report Posted November 5, 2017 Very nice. I like it. Quote

Contributing Member Bob Blea Posted November 6, 2017 Contributing Member Report Posted November 6, 2017 Looks great, very impressive carving and stitching. That is a lot to stitch all by hand. Quote
