Dwight Report post Posted October 5, 2021 Make sure you post a picture when it is done . . . and don't forget to put plenty of beads on the flap . . . showing outside. Wouldn't want anyone to think your idea was "blowing in the wind" May God bless, Dwight Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fredk Report post Posted October 5, 2021 I've thinked a thunk on this and tbh I can't thinkafy of anything different than your own suggestion. That colour would really suit a 1960s / early 70s bag with fringe. One of my sisters (I had 4, all older than me) had a hand or shoulder bag that was a rust colour, with a fringe on the flap which came all the way down over the front and the fringe hung down lower. I dunno what leather was used tho. This was about 1970 to '74 - ish. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It also makes a nice liner material for belts, guitar straps, and the like. Im looking for ideas too my son has brain tanned a few deer hides so they are similar. A nice pair of gloves would work too. or some moccasins. Edited October 5, 2021 by chuck123wapati Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
