Marine/ Eagle Globe And Anchor Day Plannera Creation Story by Kerry's Custom Leather

Drawing of design

update posted on Feb 20th 2012 by Kerry's Custom Leather

Patrick,
I've included pictures of the planner I picked up and the paper, the measured and cut leather, and the drawing of the design. When looking at the font of words, don't be alarmed, after I cut and tool the letters I go back and carve the outlining of the letters. Does that make sense?
I'll forget the Ma'm and did I sense a little sarcasm?? LOL. More later...

Design fully tooled

Patrick,
Here are pictures of the cover. I'll be dyeing it tonight and sewing tomorrow. I should be able to ship it on Wednesday. Have a good night! What is the time difference over there?

interior done

update posted on Feb 21st 2012 by Kerry's Custom Leather

Patrick,
The interior is done now so all I have left is to sew the interior to the cover. So what kind of goodies do you miss the most? What do you do in your free time over there? I'll send a finished picture later...
Almost forgot, I use the highest quality leather which is very soft! But, I also add a conditioner to add softness and help make water resistant.

Done!

Patrick,
Here are the final pictures. Do you like my pretty pink pen? LOL! No, you can't have it! You can have the planner and the paper, though. Now I have to make one for my husband, thanks....
Let me know about goodies and I'll ship this out tomorrow. Thanks so much for your business and your service!
