fuzzbucket Report post Posted July 21, 2018 I have been looking at the site for some time and my kids have pushed me to get back into leather work. This is the first project in 40 years that I have completed. Still a little rusty, look forward to hearing from you. I've learned a lot of good tips from the website. Thanks for all the good information and it's neat to see the support you give each other. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

battlemunky Report post Posted July 22, 2018 I'll agree with the above! Also, The stitching matching the background is really cool. I never think of that stuff. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fuzzbucket Report post Posted July 22, 2018 Thank you Handstitched, The wife chose it , I back it with blue chap suede and in side is canvas , other than helping scout learn over the years it feels good to do it again, its hard putting your self out to judged and I am my worst critic, when there are such great craftsman on the site, I was able to go to Presott to the show for the first time as they didn't have show years ago , the wife saw one by Bob Park and could not get it out of her head thanks again for the feed back Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
