I made a back quiver, pics
« on: April 12, 2009, 09:45:00 PM »
This was my first attempt at leather work. I found a couple of different build alongs and used a few ideas from each. I think it turned out good, a little stiff but I think it will break in ok. I started Friday evening and finished up a little while ago. I wanted a natural color and used some shoe polish and then a leather protector. I also used an antler tip for the pocket. It was challenging at times but very rewarding. Just a few things to add to dress it up. Let me know what you think.

Wow! Impressive! Great Job. My first try was one hot mess.

The great bow twanged. The black arrow sped straight from the string, straight for the hollow
by the left breast where the foreleg was flung wide. In it smote and vanished, barb, shaft,
and feather, so fierce was its flight.~J.R.R. Tolkien-The Hobbit

well done mate.   :notworthy:

Thanks for all the kind words.
I have been wearing it around the house to break it in, my family thinks I'm a little nuts. I have a question, should I wear it with or without arrows in it? Also I have put a couple of cotes Obenauf's leather preservative on it so far, what do you use to soften yoours up? I'd love to see some pictures of yours and any other words of wisdom you may have.
