It looks to me a little like the old time doctors bag. You might find something similar in the Tandy Motorcycle pattern pack.

Johann,

Here is a link to another image of a portmanteau that would give you another couple looks to make one on your own...even with dimensions given. I'll send more links if I find them. I'm looking for the same thing...

Why don't you make your own pattern ? It doesn't look like theirs a whole to it and it should be easy to make out of some poster board.

ther's a similar bog in the tandy motorcycle pattern pack, you only have to enlarge it on the copymachine ;-).

hope this helps ?

Cheers.

But if you should find a pattern of this portmanteau, please let me know aswell (for my pattern collection I started in the beginning of this year)

There is a pattern for a portmanteau located on pages 211-215 in The Book of Buckskinning II. Published by Scurlock Publishing.

This would be a good opportunity to practice your pattern making, this is a relatively easy project. I've made a few dozen bags for bikes along the same lines including a larger one for just keeping my Rendezvous stuff in.

Pretty much the same thing. I didn't make a pattern just drew it out on graph paper 1/4" to the inch to get the ball park proportions then cut it out and assembled.

I made one a few (no, wait, twenty) years ago based on the one in the book. Mine is completely round. I use it to store my SASS gear.

Call leathercrafters and saddle mans journal and see if they can find the article they published several years ago. They print out the complete article weather it's in one issue or spans several for you. You pay them for the article and not the complete issues.
