Boriqua Posted April 10, 2018 Report Posted April 10, 2018 So cool gig came up. Local gentleman and his wife officiate weddings in different locals in AZ. Part of their thing is they dress kind of cowboy for the affairs so he wanted something for his 686 but didnt wanted handsome but not to ornate. He also preferred flatter browns so this guy was dyed in with Fiebings Russet and what doesn seem to show up in the pix is there is some dark brown ghosting here and there and along the edge. He was happy ... through me an extra $20 which made the wife happy! Of course it wouldnt be complete without some belt Quote
bikermutt07 Posted April 10, 2018 Report Posted April 10, 2018 I love it. Great job. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.
Members Tugadude Posted April 10, 2018 Members Report Posted April 10, 2018 Very nice, clean work. Simple is good! The thing about simple though is that the more you look, the more you see the details that added up to a tasteful, attractive piece. The dye job, edges and stitching all pop. Quote
Members YinTx Posted April 10, 2018 Members Report Posted April 10, 2018 Outstanding! As Tugadude says, the details and craftsmanship really shine through, doesn't need any embellishment to be a stand out.

Members dikman Posted April 14, 2018 Members Report Posted April 14, 2018 While ornate and heavily worked items can certainly look impressive, there's something about a simple clean design that just speaks of elegance. Nicely done. Quote Machines wot I have - Singer 51W59; Singer 331K4; Seiko STH-8BLD; Pfaff 335; CB4500. Chinese shoe patcher; Singer 201K (old hand crank)
