Hey everyone !
Just wanted to make sure you all know about the up coming Hides to Art Leather Workshop.
It's March 19-21 in Asheville, NC.
You can get details at http://www.hidestoart.com/
I've gone the last two years and loved it!. There aren't too many workshops on the east coast so this is great! I can't afford to go out west to the big workshops.
This year they will have Al Gould, Bob Beard and Chan Geer. The only hard part is picking which class to take.
They have also sold leather, tools and supplies there in the past. I guess they will again this year.
If you want any info on the past shows contact me.

Good looking Pommel bags. Very clean and well made. Like the lace up on the top. Sweet! You running a Colt Single action in the holster?
Storm
No, this is a birthday gift for a friend. He has a .41 cal S&W.
Thanks,

This horn bag is darker than it looks in these pictures.
I made these as a gift for a good friend. It's made to hold his 41 caliber S&W revolver. The color, border and trim match his saddle.
This is my first try at one of these.

Have you thought about submitting it to LC&SJ?
Thank you!

Very clean & neat look. What is the lining (pig, fabric, ....)? I like how you folded the top down 2-3 inches into the interior rather than just barely over.
Regis
Thanks Folks. I bought the lining leather a long time ago. It's paper thin and I think it's pig skin.
The inside top edge is actually a separate piece about 2" tall. I skived the top edges and glued them over about 1/2". Attached is a close up.
Thanks,

Very nice. For your first time it doesn't show!
Maybe next time, you can give us a heads up? You never know what you will get for your auction. After all, it is for a good cause.
Good luck
Thanks, but the auction was just for people at work. I work for AT&T so there will be folks from all over the world seeing it and hopefully someone will bid on it.

We're raising money for United Way at work and I made this for our online auction at work.
It's a bag (either purse or tote) with matching key fob.
This is the first time I lined one and made a zippered pocket.

Attaching pictures again.

I assume you wet it then twist it. How do you keep each in place until it dries? How do the twists hold up over time? I guess they eventually straighten out.
Thanks,
Art

Great job! Did you twist all that fringe?
Art
-
It looks great! I can't wait to see what you do with it.
Art

It's wonderful to have you join us! How great it would be to have that history and skills passed down in a family.
I look forward to seeing pictures of your work.

No, I didn't. We'll see how it works out. I started to use a piece of metal instead but thought I'd try the thick leather first.
Art
I like it. Did you use any kind of stiffener in the piece that slips into the loop on the clip holder? -
Mmmm I saddle that nice you would think there would be a makers mark somewhere on it. Did you look at the skirts under the jockeys? There may be one under the silver plate on the strap keeper.
