Very very nice work.
Bowhunting is a passion, not an obsession. Its just hard for my wife to tell the difference sometimes.

If that is your first, I can only imagine what your other projects will look like.  Outstanding job

That is some very nice work.  If you are displeased with it, I'll be happy to hide it out of your sight over here in southern Indiana.  I wish I was that talented.  Be sure to show us the arm guard when you finish with it.

QuoteHow did you sew the strap to the quiver?
 
The last strap at the top on the back. I punched the holes through the strap and then tranfered them using a awl. It was a pain reaching back inside but i didnt know what else to do.

I did all the sewing on the strap pocket by hand. I did what's called a saddle stitching it should never come lose. I used a punch to drive through the leather followed by hand stitching with two needles. I put all the parts on before closing it up and stitching the back. The back I and pocket cover stich is called a Mexican basket weave. The center of the back was too hard for to try so I just went for a crisscross.  
Thank you all for the nice things you have said. I give the real leather guys a lot of credit the blisters and just how much time it takes to do the work has given me a whole new perspective on their talents.
Hopefully you will see me as a better person today than I was yesterday..

You've got a real talent there my friend.  I hope you pursue it.

That is really nice!  Looks like a lot of hours as well as a lot of thought. Just curious, what is the knife?
