The Leathercraft Shed: Back in my Shed!
http://the-leathercraft-shed.blogspot.com/2013/02/back-in-my-shed.html
Thursday, 7 February 2013. Back in my Shed! I've had a bit of a break from my shed, mostly down to it being frozen up or just plain too cold to work in! I miss being in there, listening to my radio though, so the recent thaw was very welcome! I began work on this notebook cover back in December, but only got it finished recently. What do you think? I have also been making a start on two new Filofax-style organisers -. I love big, old trees and enjoyed carving this out freehand. The leather I used for...

The Leathercraft Shed: Stretchmarks!
http://the-leathercraft-shed.blogspot.com/2012/12/stretchmarks.html
Friday, 28 December 2012. Oh, it's been a long time since I've posted! I've been busy in my shed leading up to Christmas and some of the projects I've been working on have been for gifts, so I've not been able to photograph them. There was also a spell of cold weather which made working in the shed a bit miserable to say the least . Once the dye has been applied and the leather is buffed and polished, it is sealed and protected and can take the usual daily battering and I can breathe easier! Here is a pe...

The Leathercraft Shed: September 2012
http://the-leathercraft-shed.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Friday, 28 September 2012. A few things I've been working on. Here are a few things I've been working on lately. Two small notebooks which I've enjoyed making. My fridge magnets have worked out well, the magnets have been glued in with a hot glue gun as I hate it when the magnet bit falls off the back of fridge magnets don't you! I finished this and it is now in my shop. The lacing took ages and resulted in me busting several needles! I like the finished effect though. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Crafty ...

The Leathercraft Shed: Horses!!
http://the-leathercraft-shed.blogspot.com/2012/11/horses.html
Thursday, 15 November 2012. For some time now, I have been thinking of carving a horse's head into leather. It's been a long time since I sat down with my art bag as drawing has been replaced by sewing and leathercraft over the years, but I spent most of my childhood drawing horses! Here is my horse sketch, carved into the leather! This is a sample piece that I did to see how the design would work on leather. I must have been pleased with it as I've added my initials! 15 November 2012 at 14:00. Red Wood ...
