Members stormcrow Posted July 5, 2018 Members Report Posted July 5, 2018 Just bought some orange dye recently and I thought I’d try it out on a card wallet for a friend at work. I’ve used a KS Blade punch 3.28mm, Kevin Lee awl and some .55mm Sky Blue waxed linen thread by Yue Fung. I’ve also just got a delivery of some Giardini edge paint so I’m going to try it out on this. She said she liked bright colours so I’m thinking I may use some yellow for the edge but I’m still undecided on that I’ve also got orange, light blue, and bright red to choose from but I may also just opt for black. Any suggestions? Quote
Members LetterT Posted July 5, 2018 Members Report Posted July 5, 2018 (edited) Love the colors, after a time you wish for something else but brown. I would keep the edges black, it would be a nice contrast and make the yellow and orange and blue even more "visual" for lack of better word. Edited July 5, 2018 by LetterT Quote
