I remember last year when I published this video, someone attacked me because, in his opinion, my blade wasn't sharp enough. I love how folks can be experts of everything when they are hidden behind their screen, specifically men, for some reasons. #leathercraft

As we learn differently, I've tried different approaches and angles to help folks grasp the essence of this technique. I hope at least one of the videos helped you! Take a look at my playlist on Beginners - How to stitch (https://youtu.be/1aoioAgvfyw?si=W61QqaEB-PTHzaR4) #leathercraft

Some years ago, @rango_leathers offered me to try this wonderful brass pricking iron. I now use them on a regular basis and they do a pretty good job! The round holes are a good cheaper alternatives to the Sinabroks. Might be more affordable for people who begin. #leathercraft

Remember this egg-shaped bag I designed? This is how I reinforced the handles so it's flexible but yet keeps its shape despite years of use. I usually try to avoid plastic in my creations, but to reassure myself, this is recycled plastic :D #leathercraft

Part 2 - I love this simple but yet smart pattern from Deyan @dsleathergoods ; from a single piece of leather, he's created a practical and minimalist card and cash holder for all the pockets. Go see his shop directly from his profile! #leathercraft

I was using scraps of this wonderful Epi Leather usually used on LV Bags to make a keyfob. This leather is chrome-tan, so I painted the edges to save some time. Lol, 'save some time'. #leathercraft

Hey! It's the same shop than of this product : tidd.ly/3LjD8br but I can't find the reference. Just double check on your side maybe I missed it 😊

Geoffrey, Lord Leathercraft @lordleathercraft.bsky.social · Sep 8

This is a small part of a more complete leather bag made some years ago. I remember it so well as it was my first bag inspired by an old pattern found in a supermarket. (Who knows Super U ? :D) Remember the video of the making of this bag? You can find it in my reels. It's an egg :D #leathercraft

I inherited this skin from my father and even today, I still don't know what to do with it. It's a beautiful and unique python skin from decades ago, and I'm to scared I'm gonna ruin it :/ What's your best advice to manipulate and use snake leather on leathergood? #leathercraft

Motivated by a client's idea, I've made this first high-fidelity prototype that I now keep on me when I go to countries using a lot of coin and cash. (Yes we don't use those much in Luxembourg for some reasons) What do you think of this layout? #leathercraft

Geoffrey, Lord Leathercraft @lordleathercraft.bsky.social · Aug 25

Missed a step? It happens to everyone! No worries, scrap leather can still shine. I keep mine for padding, keyfobs, jewelry, or bookmarks.

What do you do with your remnants? #leathercraft

Wings 2, my most sold bi-fold leather wallet, in Navy and Cognac leather. I think it is also my most sold color combo. Navy and cognac is kind of a go-to color combo, I must admit. What's your most requested color combo? #leathercraft

This wax badalassi leather has a strong and beautiful pull-up effect. It's a perfect choice for making my father's next cardholder as it will be a leather and wallet of character, just like him :) #leathercraft

Dollaro Walpier has this luxurious pebble aspect that I really love. This wallet is mine for more than a year and a half, and it was my really first good created just for me. All the others were either prototypes that I put in a secret box, or orders for friends or colleagues. #leathercraft

What's good when you craft your own leathergoods, is that you can make custom belt just for yourself, and enjoy the process of creating something you will wear. Do you often craft for yourself? #leathercraft
