My First leather Project ever

Hi everyone,

I’d like to show you my very first leatherworking project. For about half a year now, I’ve been really interested in this wonderful craft. I watched hundreds of videos and checked the related subreddits here on Reddit every day. I had a lot of information on the topic, but until recently, I didn’t have any tools or leather.

Then, a few days ago, I finally bought a basic set of tools and some leather scraps I found on eBay. According to the seller, it’s vegetable-tanned leather from Italy. I was really eager to finally get started on my first project. Since I’ve been deeply into the EDC scene for a long time, I knew right away what my first project would be: an EDC card holder. I found a template I liked and started working on it yesterday. I had so much fun that I completely lost track of time.

It didn’t turn out perfectly, but I’m still pretty happy with it. I’ll do a few things differently next time, though, because I really learned a lot while making this very first one.

Now I’d be really interested to hear your thoughts. Suggestions for improvement and so on.

Thank you very much and best regards to this wonderful community.

I made a leather begleri

i came across a few meters of round leather cord (3mm) and this was the first thing that came in my mind. It plays surprisingly well. how would you call it? Leathleri?

I made a triaxial weave (1st attempt)

I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it, but I wanted to give it a try

I made so much more but gifted them to my friends. These are the "leftovers" that didn't look so good and some experimental stuff.
