OldCanuck Report post Posted July 24, 2022 It's been a while. I didn't quit; I just went really slow. Here are the four completed panels. The mountain is Longs Peak, the Keyboard of the Winds, and Pyramid Peak, in Rocky Mountain National Park. Columbines on the left, larkspur on the right. The waterfall is Ouzel Falls, in Rocky Mountain National Park. I'm stunned at how close to the photos this one came out. The spray of Rocky Mountain wildflowers, starting with the orange ones at 1 o'clock and going clockwise: common western wallflower forget-me-not wild strawberry heartleaf arnica forget-me-not again blue flax forget-me-not again white geranium and wild geranium potentilla or cinquefoil ... and across the middle, left to right: wild iris Jacob's ladder aspen daisies Indian paintbrush Each of the seven wild rose blossoms on the flap is based on a photo I took somewhere in the Rockies. Next steps are: Some kind of clear finish. Punch holes, mount hardware. Punch & lace the edges. Call me old-fashioned, I guess. Final assembly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tequila Report post Posted July 25, 2022 It looks great. That’s a lot of work for a tool pouch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sheilajeanne Report post Posted July 25, 2022 Gorgeous!! I am currently working on a tool pouch, but since it's chrome tan, it will be very plain Jane! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
