Here is a saddle bag purse I made for a lady. The finish is EVOO with a little mahogoney oil dye in it. The gussett is the backside of some moose I've had for awhile. It's really thick stuff.

Nice job been thinking of making some to sell myself just haven't got it done. How wide did you make the gusset on them?

Hi Timbo - the bag looks great. I really like how you put space in between your stippled spots in the background. I always assumed they had to be touching but the effect is neat. I like the look.

The gusset is 4" wide and it is that width all the way around. I have tapered the gussets towards the top before and it is just easier to use with it the same width all around.

They touch more often than you think. It is a pear shader that makes the impressions and you lean it at all different angles when stamping. It just makes most of the little ridges on its own. It's hard to do and not get into a pattern. You just have to keep it random.

........and thanks to all for the compliments, they are much appreciated.

That is very cool. I love that hammered texture. So easy to do and adds a ton of character. Thanks for sharing!
