a bushcraft pouch!

[fishfish]

got bored last night so i knocked this up!
the critter is a mink ,yes that of tesco fame! i cut it up and sewed it on to the pouch,i think it makes a nice toutch!,the toggle is rolled and tucked leather.
thanks for looking!!!

Well, that's certainly a new slant on pouch making.

I assume that the beastie is some sort of kids novelty toy or car mascot?
Lots of potential in this and it chuckles some of my wilder ideas.

I do like the overall shape and the elegantly simple fastenings.

Hmmmmmm!
thanks for posting ,FishFish. I think I shall be on the lookout for suitable roadkill.

Thats brilliant Fishfish but doesn't it try to bite your fingers when you open the pouch!

Oh my, now you've given me ideas. I have three face on wolf skins here just waiting for a suitable project. Nice one Fish.

thanks eric,i like yer website too!

I think I'll make a buckskin ditty bag and shove a wolf face and tail on it. I was reluctant to start cutting into a pelt without a purpose behind it but I think I'll use the body fur to make fur trimmed Viking acorn hats. It'll also allow me to use up one of the three non matching buckskins I have just lying here.

I love to make a Davy Crockett hat with a face on the front .

 

[Silverback]

Better still a hat made from Gordon Brown - it wouldn't matter which way round you wore it there would still be a face on the back and front
