Custom Love


Phase two of this wonderful custom bag is coming along...
I had forgotten how magical it can be to co-create a piece with a wonderful patron.
When you're given the freedom to pull together requested elements
it's like running through a meadow
trees in the distance
unbound
.

There is one more custom bag available -
I don't know when or if I will be able to offer something of this magnitude again!


Never knew how lovely wheat would be to tool.
I sense a leap coming, a new level of design.

I also want to offer a tutorial in the coming weeks:
using a molding spoon.

It make a really powerful difference in the 'cleanliness' of your leather work.

I am itching to get my teaching muscle flexed
for leading a weekend-long workshop
at 
in beautiful Snohomish, Washington

On June 1st and 2nd, 2013:

it will be two days focusing on tooling and bag construction
and to say I am excited is an understatement.


I hope you are having a wonderful week, dear reader!

xoxo,
Sunny

Oh, sweet Sunny...if long term layaway were an option, I'd be ALL over that custom order. xoxo

I have not yet heard of molding spoons. I agree with Cat, a tutorial from you would indeed be a treasure! Can't wait to check out the workshop details, too.
