I am looking to make my first possibles bag.  Im looking for inspiration, im hoping that you all will take the time to post some pictures of your possible bags. And maybe a shot discription on how you put them together.  Thanks!

Patrick, Google possibles bags. Lots of pics there.
 When I'm making a bag of any sorts I use a saddle stitch(2 needles, one on each end of the thread and going through the same hole from different directions) for the body, anywhere strength is needed and a running stitch or other simple stitch where strength isn't needed.
Make the most of all that comes and the least of all that goes!    Pat Brennan  Brevard, NC

Thanks Pat,  I like the saddle stitch myself. I've looked at several on Google but I was hoping to see some of the ones that PA has made.

I'll put up what I have. I try to have one for each rifle I shoot. That way I don't have to swap stuff back and forth.

Here are my bags. The beaded one is patterned after a Cheyenne bag in the National Museum of Natural History. I didn't make the horn on that one. The plain bag is just a generic variety, with a bison horn powder horn. I did make that horn. I've hunted with the plain bag, but still need to take the beaded one out and get a little dirt on it.  CC

Pat...Something to carry our possibliities with for an outing bow shooting?Good idea.I usually wear mine.Very handy at the range or even actual hunting.Wide range of possible usables put in there.I'll get a pic up of mine.

Beaded it a little with some brick red white hearts just for panash and glass weight to hold the flap down nice but not necessary.Fringe has home made copper cones pinched on.All brain tan of course.I carry anything in there from deer grunt/doe bleat/rattle sticks/flint and steel kit/char cloth/bees wax/needle and thread you name it.Handy bag to have with.I'm sure you've got your own thoughts on that.The shoulder strap I like the length that when you sit down the bottom of the bag is at seat level.Kind of paticular I quess but I like wearing things that are'nt overly cumbersome and get in the way of normal movement.Size is 8" by 10" or so.

Here's a few of mine. I just cut and made the one with fringes today. I wanted one for my double barrel BP shotgun and an upcoming squirrel hunt with my brother and son.

I use a very plain Braintan bag for all shooting associated stuff on the right side w/Powder Horn and an Oilskin Haversack on the left. The Oilskin bag carries Fire starter/extra wool mittens and something to munch on. Bob

Thanks guy's for posting the pics! All of them are great looking bags. 
See this is why I wanted to see pa pictures,  simple but effective.  And some with a little bling! All of the ones I see online are pretty fancy.  Im bad about over thinking things. 
I still need to "just make a bow!"  :laugh:
