I've still been visiting often but have not been logged in for a while, so since I am I thought I would post up a few of my recent leather projects. I make a few things but seem to keep coming back to leather journals. I did a couple for Christmas presents with a Shield / Hydra theme.
Like most makers I get better with each book as I find new techniques or just plain get better. As a result the journal I have for myself from a few years ago is pretty poor compared to my current work. So I made myself a new dog themed one. Of course I am not quite happy with the carving on this one but as it has my name on it I can't give it away and make another
I also recently finished another dog themed one as a gift for a friend. it was a fairly straightforward one to do.
Right now I am finishing off a couple of SotP ones and then onto another to be a gift for a friend. I've got some ideas for new things to try and on that so more learning.
