Title: New deerskin quiver
Post by: Kegan on June 05, 2008, 07:57:29 pm

I just sewed this one up last night. I had planned on saving the skin for clothing later on, but the skin was begging and pleading to be put to use as a beloved back quiver- and I just couldn't resist. 14" across the top, 12" at the bottom, tear drop shape and 24" deep. The strap is an old belt again. It holds about 20 arrows comfortably and collapses partially to hold them fast- twice as many as my old quiver. Quiet, comfortable, and very quick on the draw. I tried pulling the top of the skin down for the collar, which worked so much better than sewing a seperate piece on that I don't think I'll ever have to again.

Haha, thanks guys ;D. I'll get it filled with arrows soon as I get blunts on 'em. And then nothing is safe >:D.

Either that or I could try a takedown bow, see if that'll keep the arrows company ;).
