first try at leather work

[andyc54]

hi heres my first try at leather work i did this afternoon its made from leather i recycled from an old sofa.
the first is a small pouch for a magnifying glass
the second is a pouch i've made for my steel and flint set the reason is i feel it would be better than using a tobaco tin i use at the minute in my combat trouser pocket plus it looks better











cheers for looking and any comments are very welcome
