I'm not sure (having no experience), but wouldn't it be kinda hard to emboider leather

No, you just need heavier equipment (needles, machine if you're using one) than with normal fabric.

so what's the verdict here? All that work by Geoff for nothing? I won't look

since I didn't contribute but for Geoff's sake, he deserves it, he worked hard.

Can I throw about 10 minutes of work into the fray???

I do have higher res copy that's about 11.6"x13.6" in size.
I used a black background to represent the actual leather the design would be stitched to.

That's nice Dr. Bar. What did you use to make it?

I am a man of my word, but when it is posted it will be good, patience.

Well, I would like to say a pen and paper but it's actually a photo of the bike rendered into a line drawing then made into a negative. I did it all in about 10 minutes or so with JASC 7 Paint Shop Pro. One day I will have to seriously learn just what that program will do, I only play with it.

PS: You might have noticed, I even put my initials into the darn thing... lol.

Looks like you know how to use the program to me. It would be sweet to have a patch made from a photo of your own bike.

I just read this thread and I have to say, I am appalled at how you all have objectified this woman they way you have. I thought you were all men, not animals. I am so surprised, I never expected this behavior from people like you.
