Members CitizenKate Posted January 9, 2008 Members Report Posted January 9, 2008 Very nice piece, Marcel. I would have never guessed this was someone's first project. It has a very clean and finished appearance to it. Kate Quote
Ambassador Beaverslayer Posted January 9, 2008 Ambassador Report Posted January 9, 2008 Great looking bag Marcel, and for your first project and hand stitching I say you did a marvelous job. Keep it up. Ken Quote Beaverslayer Custom Leather<br />Wearable Works of Art https://www.facebook...erCustomLeather
Members TheTrooper Posted January 9, 2008 Author Members Report Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) @all THX a lot for the kind words and hints. Can´t wait to start my next project. But therefore I still need some materials, hope to get my package from Tandy very soon. But the delivery to germany takes some time :-) Regards, Marcel Edited January 9, 2008 by adamant-leather Quote FKA adamant-leather Feel free to visit my site adamant-leather.de
Ambassador Don101 Posted January 9, 2008 Ambassador Report Posted January 9, 2008 Have you tried here http://www.lederhaus.de/ http://www.leder-hobby.de/ http://www.thebeargallery.de/ Don Quote
Members TheTrooper Posted January 9, 2008 Author Members Report Posted January 9, 2008 (edited) I checked all of them and a lot of stuff I already bought from the bear gallery. But the dollar exchange rate is so nice, that I order directly from tandy. Sadly the geman distributors don´t offer all the sale discounts which Tandy has in the US. And the peoples at Tandy are always nice and helpfull, so I prefer ordering directly from them. The only thing I always order directly in germany is my leather itself. Don, wich company do you prefer for ordering leather in germany ?? Regards, Marcel Edited January 9, 2008 by adamant-leather Quote FKA adamant-leather Feel free to visit my site adamant-leather.de

Members TheTrooper Posted January 11, 2008 Author Members Report Posted January 11, 2008 Hello Don, you may also check out also this site Sohre Leder. From there I got my last leather. Cheers, Marcel Quote FKA adamant-leather Feel free to visit my site adamant-leather.de
howardb Posted January 11, 2008 Report Posted January 11, 2008 Thanks a lot guys...I have to do the stitiching by hand, bacause I don´t have a proper sewing machine for leather. I mean it takes longer (especially for a beginner), but from my point of view it also brings out the real "handmade" character of a project. Cheers, Marcel Marcel, Nice work. I was going to ask about the stitching as it looks perfect! This post answered that question. Very nicely done! Brent Quote Brent Howard CALG, HLG
