Thought I'd do something different these last few day and make a new quiver.
Main body is 6/7 oz. veggie tan, covered top and bottom with 3/4 oz. veggie tan, basket weave stamped.
Hand stitched with linen thread.
Dyed with fiebings, would rather have use natural dye but was out.
Came out good. Will use this for target and stump shooting. Prefer my basket quiver.

Thanks Rich, it will work. I have a otter hide I want to make a quiver out of just not sure how
I want to go about it yet.
Ya the muzzle loaders, that's another passion of mine.

If you need some "ideas" I have some pics of NA museum quivers made from single cased skins They are pretty much made the same way with the major difference being if they came from horse cultures or foot cultures like the great lakes riverine......if ya want them please send me an email at rousseau.rd@att.net and I'll send them to you. I aint smart enough to put them on a PM but can attach them to an email.......

Thank Rich
