Been enjoying the iPhone 14 Pro Max. Also enjoying the black leather case for it, obviously :-)

iPhone delivery later today. Made two new Autumn themed leather cases for it. I’m calling the black case “Jack-o’-lantern” and the brown “Candy Corn”. Both feature two thread colors each, which is a fun little detail.
I’ve become a bit obsessed with edge work lately.
Leather for belts! Who wants one? 😊
A few other in-progress leather projects: two phone sleeves (one black the other brown) and a dog collar.
Quite the day today, lots in motion and making good progress!
A custom take on my forthcoming Field Notes sized leather cases…this one is a bit taller to hold the client’s calendar, plus a custom spot for a photo. Happy with how it turned out 🙂
Both colors have been popular for leather projects as of late.
Up at 3:45 this morning. Tortured a bit by my dreams.
Leather gift tag, which will be used again at Christmas :-)
Very productive day today. Finished these three leather projects. Thrilled with how they turned out!

Phew…the mid-afternoon crash has been very real the last few days. Body and mind feel absolutely spent once 3pm is near.
This macbook air (m2) is…amazing…
Lucy is joining me overnight in the apartment. First time she’s seen where I live now.
Another idea, another test.
In the works.
My cousin (on the left) flew into Philly from Cali for a quick work thing yesterday. My brother (middle) and I drove out to grab dinner with him. It has been 19 years since we were all together. Awesome time catching up!
I enjoy the entire process of making something, especially the end when I wrap it and tie it off with a simple bit of twine.
Very happy with how these cigar cases turned out. Client’s groomsmen will hopefully enjoy them as-well.
I am in the process of completely redoing my leather work website and I’m excited with the refreshed direction and overall “philosophy” of how I want to conduct my business, especially when it comes to the ordering “process”.
I don’t usually work in bulk, preparing leather parts ahead of time, but an order of cigar cases for a wedding party of 8 necessitates such an approach. There is certainly something to be said for the rhythm it affords.
Long story short: tried iPad OS as my “main” OS for the past year, have hit too many walls to continue…moving back to Mac OS (MacBook Air M2 enroute)…what app(s) are the kids using for creating/editing markdown files these days? Go to in the past has been iA Writer.
…not quite sure how I missed _Westworld_…
Throw back to my days of woodworking with my oh so lovely hand tools. Made this mallet originally for woodworking, turns out it works just as well for leather.
