Those edges, tho!  Nice!  Fantastic color too!  Stitching looks pretty spot on also.  thanks for sharing!

Great colour really clean lines,what rifle have you made it for??

[wheelgun629]

Thanks , I was really happy for a first leather project , the sewing is pretty tough on the hands, and the rifle is 92.

Thanks for all the positive comments, the leatheri is saddle skirting from Tandy, saw a pic online of a scabbard that I liked and made a pattern and there you have it , my next project will have tooling ,something new to learn. Really liking this craft/ hobby.thanks again

Yep my first leather project next I am going to make a holster belt and holster. The guy that was teaching me just passed away and I want to  carry on the skills he gave me. His next project was going to be a chess board made from leather I think I have to make it in memory of my old pal.
