It’s always after all the color is added that you really see how things will look.

Next part is finished. The last two parts just need to be cut. Then on to color!
Any guesses as what it will be?

It doesn’t always happen, but it’s great when it does. This award is because others enjoyed interacting with our booth. We had a wonderful weekend! What did you like at the Maker Faire this year?

First #LeatherClutch completed. Leaving the first ones simple and inexpensive. I will do a few that will be more elaborate and have tooling.

Punching all the holes always leaves me with leather confetti. Then it’s time to figure out what #MaineThread I want to use with each.

Making use of scraps for small projects in leather. These coin pouches came out smaller than I would have hoped. But it does help reduce scraps.

The leather mannequin is finally complete. Took me about three weeks from start to finish. The pattern was from #dieselpunkro and it was chosen for the ear and nose features for masks and goggles.

The mannequin has 24 parts. The first neck piece went through three layers of leather half way around, and since I am using 7-8 oz leather, it’s THICK. Next is piece 18, which now has a marker stamp. More sewing. Hopefully finishing by Sunday.

Finally got the front and the ear parts sewn on. Had to thin the leather on the riser parts to allow for curves. Should be done soon!

And so the sewing begins. This will maybe take me a few nights and add a new element for my displays at home and pop-up shops. Will be at Orlando Maker Faire. I

…And so begins the tedious task of punching all the holes that need to be sewn together on this next long overdo piece made from scraps of 7 to 9 oz leather.
