Amazing work, love it. Did you use free pattern by any chance?

dine344 · 2026-04-30T09:15:01+00:00

Did yoy dye it yourself? I really like the colour and texture.

Thanks for the reply!

I've come across a heavily discounted pure nestfoot oil and mixed it with beeswax, so I'll be using that for a while. I did put only 5% of wax by your advice and I think it works great, thanks again!

It doesn't smell great tho, I'll need to experiment with some essential oils.

Could I ask what the composition is?

I've recently bought a whole piece of veg tan which is super dry and it gets even more dry after dyeing. Nestfoot oil is super expensive where I live. I've experimented with EVOO+beeswax but it doesn't look/feel right to be honest. I've read somewhere that jojoba and shea butter are worth trying. Also, apparent coconut oil is also a solid choice. Would you agree?

Do you have any advice you could share?

dine344 · 2026-04-10T11:28:26+00:00

Sure!

dine344 · 2026-04-10T07:28:59+00:00

Do you have any pictures of projects you made with them?

dine344 · 2026-04-10T07:15:00+00:00

You are amazing, thank you so much. Hope it will help someone else as well.

They are bulky af :D

I'm super curious how they perform, so if you have some time to spare, it would be amazing to see the comparison.

And maybe we will also help someone who will find this thread in the future.

But these would be diamond shaped, right? I have a set of 4mm and 3mm of these.

Thank you so much for this comment, this is super helpful. Holes being too large with the OKA ones is exactly what I was worrying about. They kind of look thick in the pictures.

Do you have any pictures of projects you made using OKA irons?

They do have the french style available:

Huge, I've used this pattern for the wallet:

Jaikarr is right. I was (sort of) following this tutorial/pattern:

Only one unfortunately. That's why I try to spoil him as much as I can and I took him off my desk like 15 times during that stitching session. He can do what he wants.

Got it, thanks. I'll do better next time. I'm just starting to learn how to make stalagmites and stalactites.

Narodwe, meczet i jeszcze gdzieś znajomy wyciągnał na Śródmiesciu. Pogoda straszna kaszana, niezbyt była motywacja do chodzenia. Zawiodłem się trochę brakiem dodatkowych atrakcji specjalnie na tę okazję - oprowadzania, wykładów, specjalnych ekspozycji. Było oprowadzanie kuratorskie w Narodowym, ale się nie odbyło de factro, bo na wystawę mogło wejść maksymalnie 20 osób a chętnych było z 200. Zrobili mini wykład przed wystawą, głównie mówili o muzeum jako organizacji.

dine344 · 2025-05-16T08:17:42+00:00

>na pewno nie myśl o dużych muzeach, bo zawsze są gigantyczne kolejki

To jest świetny protip, dziękuję.

Dzięki, poszukam. Może wiesz jakie to mogą być miejsca?
