Making A Simple Rifleman’s Pouch
DATE: Saturday, May 9, 2009
TIME: 9 am to 5 pm
CLASS SIZE: Class size will be limited to 12 participants. pre-registration required.
CLASS DESCRIPTION: The session will begin with a brief introduction illustrating bag design, and sharing information about materials, tools and their suppliers. Class participants will create a plain rifleman’s bag such as one made in a frontier cabin or on an early period farmstead. The rifleman’s bag will be a period correct size, that is, no larger than 6 by 9 inches. It will have a 1 inch hand forged iron buckle and a keeper. We will use alcohol based dyes or stains to create an “aged” or antique look. Your bag will truly be a unique, one of a kind creation made by “your own hand”! (The bag will not be lined or include an interior pocket, welt or gusset.)
COST: $35.00 (includes all materials and
instructor’s fee.)
TOOLS & SUPPLIES: Tools will be available but will require some sharing depending on the size of the class.
PLEASE BRING: Binder Clips - need 12 (1 1/4 inch)(4/box; $0.88/box at Wal Marts)
