Yeah I like that, it has a real rustic & artisan look to it.....when trimming the leather though I think you may have come just a little too close the stitching in places..

yer thought that they kinder sit back so should be ok, will know better next time (of course its just another reson to make more)

Good stuff - what did you use as your "last" - to form around?
