I did a pretty simple leather bracelet as a test project. First time we've dyed anything I've tooled. I wanted to test using ink jet transparencies for patterns--worked pretty well when drawing with ball point pen. A stylus scratched off some of the pattern's ink. I also planned to use a fancy round braid for the outside, but that ended up being too much for the pattern. I had to cut it off and did a simple whipstitch instead.
This item is not yet earmarked for anyone. I am thinking of selling it.
Note that I didn't make the holes yet for strings for keeping it on. Will use natural-colored leather strings for that.
