Handstitched Report post Posted April 5, 2019 G'Day, In my spare time ( whatever that is , ha ha) , I like to try a few things that I thought of myself, or what I've seen on here or on youtube etc. The first ( on the left) is my own idea , using F915 beveller , and an E 483 in the centre, and whatever cammo I used on the edge. The spiral basket weave is courtesy of ' Johan Potgieter' and Chan Geer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tb-Idjx3k3Y https://proleathercarvers.com/collections/chan-geer Tools used were: X...something basket weave, , F 915 beveller, and whatever cammo I used there, S631 Seeder, ( I remembered that one ) I used a cammo and a few random ' Boss Buttons' including a ' fleur de lis' in the centre. I made my caliper points 2 1/2 " apart giving me a nice 5" circle . That seems to work quite nice. 'Boss Buttons' are a lot of fun btw , I could spend hours messing around with all sorts of random patterns with those. Not even sure you can get them anymore.

noobleather Report post Posted April 8, 2019 I like what you did with the spiral basket weave,with the second rotation changing the spacing on the basket stamp to create the laced effect in the middle. I have done a few coasters using the spiral basket weave and hadn't thought of that.Very effective Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
