Tea-Stained Fur! (Posted 5th May 2013)

I've managed to buy so lovely fur fabric for Snow's collar, but it was a little too light. My first idea was to tea-stain it/soak it in tea for several hours, but I was doubtful it'd work (because of the synthetic hair etc.). Luckily, however, it's worked! It's now much more of the colour I want it to be.

I'm still planning on adding a little bit more to try on the tester strip.

My jodhpurs arrived! So here's a photo of them along with the boots I'll be using for Snow. :)

Pattern All Cut Out! (Posted 22nd April 2013)

Cut out my pattern, I just need to stain everything up, seam it and sew it together!

Fabric (Posted 22nd April 2013)

So the previous journal was so old that the fabric I wanted was no longer available at the fabric store I was going to use.
SO! I've had to resort to buying pieces of chamois leather (used for cars) and sewn them together, which I've lined out in the picture. I've also stained the material to make it look for weathered and distressed, which I've shown in the picture as well! :)

Fabric found (Posted 18th July 2012)

Found some pretty damn good fabric at the local shop so hopefully I can make a start on the leather top.
