Members Big Beard Posted October 14 Author Members Report Posted October 14 Ok here goes. I’m trying to leather lace the edge of an arrow quiver. I’ve seen some quivers that have been sewn together not to my liking. As for the 4-1 ratio the first hole is one where you start the lace you count 4 holes I put the lace through on the opposite side. I then go back to hole 2 and so on. I know I might be telling my grandmother how to suck eggs and I apologize. Does this make sense Quote
Members BlackDragon Posted October 14 Members Report Posted October 14 There are a few different braiding techniques so it would depend on how you want the finished product to look. There are round braids, double loop, diamond, Mexican, on and on. Are you butting the two pieces together or are you laying them back to back and lacing over the seam? Quote
Members Big Beard Posted Wednesday at 08:58 PM Author Members Report Posted Wednesday at 08:58 PM I’m laying the two pieces together and lacing over the seam . I’ve just done another test peace and the 5-1 pattern seems to cover the best. Thanks for the suggestions Quote
