Well said, Thomas! I always remember when started learning watercolour painting. I had only been doing it for a few months and was disheartened at not progressing as fast as I wanted. I overheard my art teacher (who didn't know I was thinking of giving up), say to another pupil "Everyone expects to be Da Vinci overnight" That did it for me and carried on painting!
Time and practice forsure! Also, this is a skill that can diminish over time. Ive gone through lots of periods where i didnt make for several months at a time and i can definitely notice the decline in my hand skills.
Thomas. Thank you for sharing your leather craft journey. It definitely gives me hope to keep moving forward. Your work is beautiful and something to aspire too. Thank you!
I appreciate you .You do it properly, like a smooth machine stitch and without using a sewing vice. I will feel bad if I do not learn this sewing process.
Thanks for sharing your earlier works. My first few projects were pretty bad, but better than I expected. My stitching is far ahead of my cutting and burnishing. sometimes it's "perfect" and other times it's only something I would notice. I try to improve on at least one aspect of my builds on each project. I still haven't finished 10 projects yet, but I can already see progress being made. I hope to eventually be able to produce finished products as nice as yours.
Hi Tomas! Could you give me an advice on how to make the stitching holes perfectly straight? I have a 2 and a 5 hole puncher, but i always have few holes, that is not inline perfectly to the others.
Experience is the best teacher

Where do you buy your leather from?

Hi Tomas! Are you available for, obviously paid, tutoring sessions? I am learning leathercraft but I feel I would need a hand, especially in stitching
