something a bit different.

[luckylee]

This is the second part of the commission i have done for one of the members on bb.
this is one of the most challenging things i have done to date, he wanted a money carrying case that he could carry the different currency that he uses all the time, and he also wanted me to make a compartment so that he could pop his passport in there.
he gave me a free run on this, with embellishment, i sourced the best sued money can buy, and the best stingray that i could get hold of for this, i used premium calf skin leather for this, to keep this a little special.
this is a birthday gift, so i went out my way to make this the best i could, there were times when doing this project especially toward the end when i thought please don't mess up now, as it would have cost a small fortune if i got one stitch wrong or slipped when cutting.
i hope you like it.

superb quality Lee. as im still a beginner with my leatherwork im always risking my leather tae try out new styles or techniques and often with a degree of failure and waste afterwards. its good tae know that the professionals also take the odd risk and try something new
