#LeatherPride

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

The Vivaldi #browser celebrates diversity and openness, making it the perfect browser and platform to celebrate #LGBT subculture and its diversity.

Just like how these communities bring people together, so does #Vivaldi

It's my pleasure to share with the Vivaldi Community themes that celebrate #LGBTQIA culture. This is only the beginning batch of themes, with more to come!

In a world of conformity, don't be afraid to celebrate your uniqueness.

I'll go ahead and post about this too :penguIn_dance: Also a repost since I wrote about it on my previous instance--this is related to some research for a story of mine, mainly leather associated research, and I thought of making this fun web section for folks to peruse.

Basically, I decided to have some fun redesigning some pride flags for the characters in it. Mayhaps you will enjoy the process.

Feel free to comment! I'd love feedback a lot. :hamsterbreakdance:

This was my third #leatherworking project, a hat that I got the design off of CreativeAwl from Etsy, but I dyed it differently and omitted parts. I was trying to replicate the #leatherpride flag around the sides of the hat... this was well before I discovered the right tools for making it easier to hand dye the leather. It was a heavier weight than called for, but it does work out with it being slightly tight and while I know that I could have improved the dye job, I was happy with how I cut, sewn, burnished, and finished the hat on both sides. I also made sure to put in craft wire in the brim so that the brim can be shaped as I wish.

The learning experience was that a proper wing divider would help make the stripes more uniform and I could have employed the idea of leather carving and cased the side piece to get more uniform hearts. I also learned that it's very important to pick the right weight of the leather when making something, because it might not fit exactly as it should.
