Members lovetocreate Posted January 11, 2019 Members Report Posted January 11, 2019 Here's a wallet I made with a handpainted glass eye. The greenish textured leather around the eye is pigskin. Here's looking at you! Quote Consew 227R, Singer 29-4, quite a few embroidery machines and older domestic sewing machines (Bernina, Baby Lock, Brother, Pfaff and Viking)

Members Vaelloc Posted January 11, 2019 Members Report Posted January 11, 2019 Work of art right there. Quote
Members TomWisc Posted January 11, 2019 Members Report Posted January 11, 2019 The eye is recessed in the pigskin to make it look totally real! That is such a cool idea! And the pigskin looks like part of a face covering the eye. Very creative! Quote
Members lovetocreate Posted January 12, 2019 Author Members Report Posted January 12, 2019 Thank you Vaelloc and TomWisc! The eyes are reverse painted and have about 15 layers of paint. They're fun to do but time consuming (and the paint takes a while to fully dry with all of the layers) Quote Consew 227R, Singer 29-4, quite a few embroidery machines and older domestic sewing machines (Bernina, Baby Lock, Brother, Pfaff and Viking)
Members ScoobyNewbie Posted January 12, 2019 Members Report Posted January 12, 2019 Very cool! Dragons love gold! Quote
Members battlemunky Posted January 12, 2019 Members Report Posted January 12, 2019 Yep. Like this too Quote
Members LederRudi Posted January 12, 2019 Members Report Posted January 12, 2019 Another unique creation! It's evident, that you love to create! I like especially the ingenious/simple way the eye is tucked under the pig Skin. The necessary cut in the pig skin is totally consistent with the shape of an eye!
