First Gun Belt with Cartridge Loops

[Crystal]

Hi All!

First let me give a big "Thank You" to everyone that I have pestered with guestions on this project! I couldn't have done it without all of your help.

Lots of boo-boo's, oops's, and one really big that I managed to hide. Still need to get better with my edges and my sewing. Ahh, that sewing, somehow I get it okay on the front side and messy on the back side. I will get it figured out sometime.

As always, I am open to any critiques, "shoulda done's", or "ought-to-do's".

Thanks for looking!

Thanks! The holster was made first for a .44 Ruger, the guy didn't want this style he wanted a molded one. Hubby was the go between in the order... I am wondering if he messed it up just to get a holster for himself? lol I thought about re-doing the holster to match, and probably will someday.

Thanks, Josh. The two-tone is just dyeing. I came in about 1/2" from the edge and lightly scribed the line. Then I ran a creaser on that line to give it a little more definition, and just used a small paint brush to paint it on.

Thanks for the glass of milk!

The late nights and sore hands payed off. We talked a lot on the live chat about this project and I knew you would finish it. You did a Great job on it, the two tone looks really nice and the whole thing turned out. I'm really glad that you posed it for all to see.

Keep up the great work.

Thank you, Kenneth. For me the hardest part is just getting started, so go ahead and give it a try! Be sure to post it when you get it done!

Thanks, MadMax! I wanted to do something decorative, but was a little intimidated to try to carve something that large. So I ended up playing with the dye.
