Dwight Report post Posted November 21, 2021 Just wanted to drop a "Thank You" to all who encouraged me to not give up on basket weaving . . . I bought a couple of stamps . . . been messing with it . . . and had a lady come in looking for a belt for her hubby for anniversary. She gave me full reign to do it "my" way . . . just so it was the right color, size, and had his name on it. Well . . . it will never win a show prize . . . but she got his belt . . . or at least will get it when she picks it up. Thanks again . . . have a Happy Thanksgiving . . . may God bless, Dwight Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BruceGibson Report post Posted November 22, 2021 Nice job! Reminds me of a saying an old Broadcast Law professor used to use. "Everything's easy when you know how." Gaining the know-how is difficult many times, but once you've got it, the sky's the limit. Jeff over at Grey Ghost Graphics has a tutorial that I found very helpful years ago. Here's a link to it that y'all might find handy. https://greyghostgraphics.com/leather-working-tutorials/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
