Members chasman52 Posted January 29, 2017 Members Report Posted January 29, 2017 I've been here awhile mostly lurking and learning. I'll confess to being a little hesitant, but I really like making holsters. I want to get better and branch out to belts and bags. . Drag files here to attach, or choose files...

bikermutt07 Posted January 29, 2017 Report Posted January 29, 2017 Looks good to me. Thanks for sharing Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.
Members CaptQuirk Posted February 1, 2017 Members Report Posted February 1, 2017 Those look really good. The one on the top... maybe find a clip with a slightly narrower back? It looks like you were running out of room back there. Quote
Members Currahee Posted February 1, 2017 Members Report Posted February 1, 2017 Looks good man. I use a similar design for carry holsters myself. I would definitely not be ashamed of the work you did here brother. Quote
Members VMTinajero Posted February 10, 2017 Members Report Posted February 10, 2017 On the brown holster, I would make the quilting design a little smaller. It will show off the design better & make it look richer...when it is spaced too big it makes it look like it's only a portion of the design, rather than the design itself, if you get what I'm trying to say.

Members NickH Posted February 14, 2017 Members Report Posted February 14, 2017 Looks clean I would try a bigger thread. Was that done by hand or machine stitch? Quote

I agree it'll look better to tighten up the pattern , but that has to be the biggest pistol I've done sofar. Quote
