Leather work for J8

                               

                                        The mighty runner blocks!

                          


                          

                              Where the chain plate meets the shrouds.

                         

                            The Dinghy Chocks. Padded and leathered.

   

    

    

            Winch Handle Pockets designed so the handle faces the right way.

    

                          

                 These two are strapped onto the base of the boom crutch.

    

                                           B&G covers. 10 in total.

                 

                          

                          

                                   Chafe gear for the mooring lines.

                          

                          

                             Little handle holders for the hatch handles.

                          

    

                                         Blocks for the passorelle.

    

       Leather on the lazy jacks to stop it banging on the mast whilst lead forward.

                          

























Computer bags, hand bags and purses.

        

This computer bag has an inside pouch to store your computer in and a pocket for passport and phone. On the front is another compartment for chargers, cables and
pens.

   
        

        The handles are plaited and a shoulder strap was made that is also removable.

                               

                These next bags have been drawn into to create a low relief image.
  
       

          On the front flap of this full size computer bag is "the Kraken" (giant squid).

                               

  
                                

                                                  Whale tale details.

                               

   On the front of the handbag is The Sperm Whale versus The Kraken (the whale wins!)

                               

                               

                                  Marty wanted a turtle on his computer bag.

       

 
       

                           Again there is detail where the strap is clipped on.

                               

                               

                                                       Some purses.

       

                               










 





The Bow Cow

                                    

                                  The "Bow Cow", as it came to be known
                                 was the largest piece I made for Shamrock.
                                 It was designed to protect the beautiful
                                 varnished wood during racing, so it is
                                 removable.
