Leathers to the Editor Apr 19

Time to take out the bike and put on the thermos flask holder I made a year ago. Leather and cork, also attachable to any back-bag with standard PALS webbing. #leather #handmade #leathercraft #maker #cycling #handstitched

Here is my rendition of a Kephart belt bag. I read up on Horace Kephart and decided to keep this as basic as possible, without any fancy hardware or decoration. I rely on the form and contrast in colours to speak for themselves. The only ornament is the stamped leather button that holds the pack closed. #leather #LeatherCraft #Maker #HandMade #HandStitched #BeltBag #Bag #HoraceKephart

I go vintage shopping weekly and it turns out some guy has seen me shopping and admired my leather shopping tote. This week he spoke to me and it turns out he is enthusiastic about all things leather. He told me about Horace Kephart who was a naturalist and writer about the great outdoors. This fellow was particularly interested in some of Kephart's gear, including a bag he used to wear on his belt. Once home, I researched all this and can't help noticing, what Mr. Kephart carried on his belt was a sporran. I often say, it's all been done before. All we do now as leather artists is put our own spin on it.
Anyhow, here is one of my sporrans. This one has a dragon carved into the top.

I was reading a book where I wanted to annotate several pages when I came up with this idea for a bookmark containing sticky arrows. There are 400 arrows in this bookmark but if that isn't enough, it is refillable. It's very handy for recipe books or other books where you would like to re-reference or share ideas. #Leather #LeatherCraft #BookMark #maker #Books #HandMade #HandStitched #Reading

Here is the dice tray I was working on. It is obviously nothing complicated. I just had to make sure the side slits were wide enough to accomplish the folds but not too wide and that the stiffening panels on the sides met up in the corners but didn't interfere with folding.
My partner has named it "Andrew."
