YinTx thanks i'm still learning the art of air brushing with dyes and think I'm going to stop gluing and knotting my threads and start trusting the lock stitch.

Tim Schroeder Report post Posted May 20, 2021 Looks great Chuck. Making stuff for family is the best. I really want to make pen/pencil sets. My wife is in the corporate world so a lot of people would see them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fredk Report post Posted May 20, 2021 That is quite nice I'm gonna be the n***** in the woodpile The stitching showing on the outside detracts from its niceness. That stitching could have been done to the main liner before that was sewn to the outside cover No offence meant to you, just saying a thought Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Truthfully i thought hard about that, i was worried the liner would pull away/ come unglued after time it is very thin pig suede. Maybe a lighter color thread would have been a better choice too and stitched full length. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
