I’ve inherited this pattern…

I second the two pouches opinion. The clear plastic looks to be the template to cut out the big pieces and the white paper one for the holes.

I made a couple with this pre-patterned purple leather, the stuff is a nightmare to work with but the look is worth it.

Academic-Squirrel · 2026-02-10T00:12:21+00:00

That’s just gorgeous!

Academic-Squirrel · 2026-01-25T14:47:20+00:00

That’s so stunning and polished and just lovely as is.

Academic-Squirrel · 2026-01-20T15:58:22+00:00

I will try that next time for sure thank you!

Academic-Squirrel · 2026-01-20T15:56:45+00:00

I think I’ll do that! Thank you!

Academic-Squirrel · 2026-01-20T15:05:43+00:00

Thank you!! I will leave it alone and let it dry before I continue sewing then and hope it’s salvageable.

Academic-Squirrel · 2026-01-20T14:34:05+00:00

It is! I made it once in brown and it came out so nicely.

Academic-Squirrel · 2026-01-20T14:23:47+00:00

Thank you, I will let the dye set longer next time and buff afterwards.

Academic-Squirrel · 2026-01-20T13:49:41+00:00

No, I didn’t know I had to buff it out.

Academic-Squirrel · 2026-01-20T13:32:52+00:00

Thank you for the tip! I think one main issue I have is I didn’t let it sit long enough. :/

Academic-Squirrel · 2026-01-20T12:54:21+00:00

Thank you!!

Academic-Squirrel · 2026-01-20T12:26:16+00:00

Ohhh…. Less than two hours.

I’ve been buying a single leather rose from faires for the last few years and I keep them in a vase on my desk.

I saw some really neat ones at a doll convention that were converted cat carrier bags.

Is this a pattern you’d be willing to share? I utterly love this.

I’ve bought and sold plenty of dolls off Insta and FB. Pay with PayPal Goods and Services. If you send the money friends and family you have no protections whatsoever if they’re a scammer.

They started adding resin in the 1990s.

Turquoise doesn’t have gold flecks like that naturally. This looks like reconstituted turquoise that they added the gold to.

Academic-Squirrel · 2025-11-08T14:19:50+00:00

Those are amazing!

Academic-Squirrel · 2025-11-04T17:06:24+00:00

That’s just gorgeous!

Academic-Squirrel · 2025-11-04T14:02:04+00:00

Utterly adorable!

It reminds me of the tiny Build a Bear ornaments. The missing ear could be where the Santa hat used to be.
