My latest leatherwork commission

[John Fenna]

Not very Bushy but I am quite pleased with it...
Commissioned via the same person who had me make a leather photo album cover for pics of her hubbies world travels
A Music Case as a leaving prezzie for someone...
It pushed me a bit to get is simple, clean and not "over finished" and I had to learn how to make the roped handle - but then every new commission pushes me to learn new stuff!

Looks like "an old friend" already - love the not over finished look

 

[John Fenna]

The lady it is intended for is a bit "alternative" (West Wales is where Hippys come to die and the alternative culture is STRONG!) so I thought that a high polished finish would not suit ...
The leather is a nice, waxy, supple 2mm - which darkens with any polish - and is pretty waterproof!

That means a lot to me - coming from a master of the leather!

Lovely work! Leatherwork for me is a bit of a black art, so I am in awe of some of the skills showcased here on BCUK.
