Uhhh.. Well, I needed something to do while I wasn't able to sit up for a long while, so I decided to get some leather working stuffs, and try it out. Here is my first real attempt at making any design using standard methods of leather tooling...

I hadn't intended it to be pure black, but after a little incident with the black dye..... lol, this is what happened.

Also, I should note that this particular piece of leather is not much thicker than the cardboard back of a drawing pad, got it in a scrap package. Thin stuff is not as good for tooling.
