JMcC Report post Posted January 13, 2018 I like it! It's not supposed to look professional, it's medieval so I think it looks great and the only ones opinion that matters is your daughters!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

battlemunky Report post Posted January 13, 2018 Looks awesome and should last her long enough to understand that her daddy made it for her and it lasted and lasted. Fill that sucker full of Barbie heads, ladybugs, some pennies, nickles, and dimes and set her loose to conquer the backyard! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

She clearly loves you and your work! ;-) But seriously, well done -- not just on the sturdy leather work, but for the work you put into it for your daughter. Gotta love the pink color!

DV8DUG Report post Posted February 13, 2018 I'm sure the backpack will turn out as nice as this did. Nice Work! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aven Report post Posted February 18, 2018 I love it. I'm not a fan of pink for the most part, but I love that color. It turned out awesome. I wouldn't have liked it of it was "professional". It would have looked factory made. One glance and you can tell it was make with skill and love. Great job Dad. Don't forget to post the sheath and backpack when you get them done.
