Paul hd Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Hi All. Started on this today. It's a Sue Mey pattern. It will have a frame and the pattern will be suspended within the frame. I will have it finished up tomorrow. Just need to source some leather type chord.

penquin Posted July 7, 2015 Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 Paul, that looks outstanding. Very nicely cut. Great detail. You asked for suggestions on stains I think, you can't go wrong with Mini Wax They got a bunch of different ones and they all work great for me. jim penquin Paul hd and WayneMahler 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will look into that product. 👠Very nicely done Paul. Might want to check out leather boot laces. Thanks for sharing this with us. DW Hi DW. Brilliant idea thanks. ðŸ‘I had a search and found a site that sold the boot laces, they also sold it by the meter so I bought a couple of meters. I'm sure I will be re visiting this pattern in the future. Very nice Paul. Love the way it looks, detailed and not busy. Great job. Stains I use minwax most of the time. Just started to play with dyes from HD Lockwood. Thanks for sharing. Hi Wayne. Sounds like the minwax is popular. I will also look at the dyes.

Paul hd Posted July 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 Marg, Kepy and Dan. Thanks for the comments. 👠Got more done today. 😀 I made a small change to the original pattern. I found that the centre piece was to close to the inside of the frame. So I just cut the pattern and made it a 1 and a 1/4 inch wider and longer. There is no need to do that, just a personal preference. I also found a pot of wax that we got with some oak furniture that we bought a few years ago. I am meant to give the units a coat of this stuff but forgot. 😳😊 Anyway it makes quite a nice stain. I gave a coat to the backing and frame. Not done anything with the centre piece yet. Decided to make the feathers in plastic. I like the opaque, the clear ones I will give a bit of colour. I might even make some wood ones but I need to get some 3mm ply. Leather string is ordered. ðŸ‘😄 penquin and bobscroll 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koehler788 Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 That is TOO COOL!!! I like it the way it is and I think I would try another with a little bit of color. Paul hd 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kywoodmaster Posted July 8, 2015 Report Share Posted July 8, 2015 (edited) Beautiful. I love anything Native. I especially like the acrylic feathers that is going to add a special effect. Would like to see the finish product. I agree with others you can't go wrong with Minwax products if they are avaliable to you.

Paul hd Posted July 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 It's kind of finished. I wanted to colour the clear feather but I like what Koehler said about keeping this as is. I do like the plain simple look to it. That's one way of getting out of more work. 😊😜😀 The next one I will go with more colour. This has been a joy to work on I've really enjoyed it. Thumbs up to Sue Mey for this pattern. 👠Thank all Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
