Description
That edging is my pride and joy at the moment. The lines were easy enough, a simple cut-n-bevel, but that left the question of (A) how to do the little leaf segments and (B) how to make that grid. I wound up doing the leaves by hand with a tracing stylus rather than trying to use a stamp, and since Tandy doesn't sell tiny square pyramid tools, I made my own out of sculpey. It looks rather obscene, like a fist giving you the bird or like something vaguely phallic, but it works beautifully.

Made of 9-10 oz leather, wet molded, carved and tooled by hand, colored with MAGIC, etc.
