Bag for flyreel

[Rayban]

Practice piece I made from inspiration of Art S gift for his wife. First time I try something like this and sewing is something I have to work on.

Main leather piece was no good, twisted and out of shape so I thought it'd make a good practice piece for new stuff. Only critiqiue I'm looking for is about the overall appearence. T

here is a number of flaws that I already know off.

Thank you kevin and Rayban!

It's a Swedish brand that makes high-end fishing rods n reels. I have tried to explain the word a bit earlier in the thread. It translates to something like The streamdragonfly but Pip have suggested that it's probably called Stonefly/Mayfly/Caddisfly by judging from a pic i took of the insect on their stylized logotype.

It's for a friend who knows he's getting something but not what it actually is. He's sen the tooling before assembly and loved it.

Sent him an sms to come pick it up but he is in London and sent following back -oh stop bugging me I wanna know what it is and enjoy my stay here without wondering about it.

I have previouslt sent him mms'es with closeup snaps of the bag that doesn't reveal what it is. He's getting really anxious 'bout it now I think, lol

Thanks!

Tom
