DavideT Report post Posted March 30, 2011 Hi All, this is my first work. image uploader It is a pen case to be carried at the neck or attached to a those lanyard we use for badges. It is made of sort of leather (skin??) that is used for diarys; I used a nail to make the holes to sew the leather. In the past I did a couple of sheaths for kichen knives just folding leather coming from a bag and closing it with rivets using an hammer. But I don't have pics.

dragonspit Report post Posted March 30, 2011 interesting idea. I see pens attached to lanyards all the time and wonder how many end up as fod. using a nail sure sound to be the hard way, an awl would work better. I dont know your looking for critiqs or not. but if you want your project to look better, I would invest a couple of dollars on a book by al stohman for handsewing. all the little details will help a ton. bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
