I noticed we don’t post completed projects often, possibly because we don’t want to create a new thread for every small thing we make – at least that’s the case for me. I thought I’d get this thread started and everyone can just bump it whenever you make something you’d like to show off and don’t feel like creating a new thread every time
Here’s my first completed project of 2025: a cabinet/shelf-like thing mostly to house our hydroponic setup (we live a condo so this is our “garden”) but also cookbooks and a booze shelf:

Turns out there’s a reason you don’t typically make things this way, because it was unpleasant to work on throughout, esp. on the stitching. The result is a bit more rustic than I prefer but I just wanted it to be done
WOW! Just WOW! Branislav, you are so unbelievably talented… I’m so in awe of your talent, creativity and workmanship. Thank you for sharing this, it’s truly inspiring.
