Hey Hengelo_77, yes the threads are melted. In the first pic you can see it at top right and bottom left. It’s the first time I used this thread. It’s heavier than what I normally use. It didn’t melt well. Thank you duramax! That’s sound advice. Horsewright the letters were traced then transferred to the leather. I used a bolder pattern backgrounder I thought looked nice. I can see it now compared to your pics. I guess I just sort of stamped around the lines not really insetting. The only letter stamps I have are 1/4”. I use them for my makers mark. I shall improve on the next project (I hope). I guess I’ll keep adding to this thread when I get something done. Always looking for tips and feedback!
Thanks, Jon
