Wildebeest and zebra hip quiver
« on: January 14, 2015, 08:16:00 AM »
I recently finished up my first hip quiver.  I get a lot of satisfaction from making my own gear.  I used some wildebeest hide that I traded a broken guitar for a couple of years ago. The zebra hide was an old wine bottle cover I got at a yard sale.  It had a zipper top.  You can see the holes where the zipper was stitched on.  I had to take it apart and cut it down some to fit.  I made sure to leave the stamp on the inside.  I enjoy re-purposing old stuff any time I can.  I put two screws into the the antler to hold the belt loop fold.  I think I'm going to redo the antler.  I just drilled a hole for the screws.  I think it would hold up better if I drilled and tapped the holes and used machine bolts.  I used a stiff leather for the back.  I stitched the wildebeest hide onto the back and folded it over.  I've been wanting a hip quiver for 3D shoots.  I can't wait to try this one out.
