Members Jbrandon Posted October 28, 2018 Members Report Posted October 28, 2018 Oh no...... This is where I always get nervous! Quote
Members ScoobyNewbie Posted October 28, 2018 Members Report Posted October 28, 2018 Looks good so far. Quote
Contributing Member fredk Posted October 28, 2018 Contributing Member Report Posted October 28, 2018 Yes, looking good. I do not do a lot of stamping, but I notice you do not have any guidelines marked. Lightly marked guidelines every few rows can help. The lines would be lost in the stamping Quote
Members Hildebrand Posted October 28, 2018 Members Report Posted October 28, 2018 It looks great but looking at it I don’t think it’s going to line up, the angles it appears are slightly different. I try to put as long a straight line as possible, in this case maybe put a straight edge down about the middle of the brand and mark lines above ithe brand and below it to work off of. I would love to see the finished product, I have a soft spot for brands. Todd Quote
Members Jbrandon Posted October 28, 2018 Author Members Report Posted October 28, 2018 Yes I use guide lines. There was one just past that last row. It's just when you break to go around something that gets a little iffy! Quote
Members Jbrandon Posted October 28, 2018 Author Members Report Posted October 28, 2018 I marked guide lines exactly the way you suggested. The angles are really close but I got off enough to not quite match up. Quote

Members battlemunky Posted October 28, 2018 Members Report Posted October 28, 2018 Yeah, that is a pickle. I think it came out ok. Do you have any pics without the ruler in them? Quote
Members Hildebrand Posted October 28, 2018 Members Report Posted October 28, 2018 Still looks great. Second vote for picture without the ruler. Quote
Members Handstitched Posted October 28, 2018 Members Report Posted October 28, 2018 Me and ' basket weave & tri weave' have this.... " love hate relationship " . I love doing it and the lovely pattern it creates, but hate it when it all goes wrong Unless someone knows leather, no-one would ever notice. What colour dye are you going to use ? It looks great HS Quote
Members battlemunky Posted October 28, 2018 Members Report Posted October 28, 2018 You know, I bet you could "persuade" that to look a little more joined with some love from a modeling spoon on those little bits where they connect. Soooo close though! Quote
Members Jbrandon Posted October 28, 2018 Author Members Report Posted October 28, 2018 Thanks. I'll post a picture of it after the dye dries. Quote
Members Handstitched Posted October 29, 2018 Members Report Posted October 29, 2018 @battlemunky I have used a beveller on my tri-weave on occasion to make it look ......' normal' HS Quote
Members Jbrandon Posted November 5, 2018 Author Members Report Posted November 5, 2018 Well here it is all finished up. Quote
Members noobleather Posted November 5, 2018 Members Report Posted November 5, 2018 That is a really good looking piece of work. I have a basket weave stamping addiction and have been trying to use it with other larger stamps and or lettering and it's really hard to line up. Ruler and a soft lead pencil before casing the leather works for me (sometimes). Quote
Members battlemunky Posted November 5, 2018 Members Report Posted November 5, 2018 Hardly noticeable! Great job Quote
Members ScoobyNewbie Posted November 5, 2018 Members Report Posted November 5, 2018 That looks great. My son’s and my efforts turn into “theft protection devices”, nobody can see where to grab them at. Quote
Members Handstitched Posted November 6, 2018 Members Report Posted November 6, 2018 That is beautiful . The colour is deep , rich and so damn good . Any concerns about the weave lining up are gone Well done HS Quote
