First Holster
« on: December 30, 2019, 07:59:18 AM »
EL Dorado pattern from Will Gormly. It is functional and decorative but nothing to brag about. I have enough leather for two more this one was just to get my feet wet and learn from my mistakes. It is always fun to tackle a new craft.

You will find that your work will improve with each Holster you make.

My very first holster, was made from a bag of scrap, no pattern, and a finishing nail to poke holes for the stitches. You did a fine job out of the gate.
