New Pouch, Biathlon Prize

[erock1980]

This is a pouch I made as a first place prize for the 19th Annual Shandaken Primitive Biathlon, a fun winter event in my area where contestants of different age groups compete using snowshoes and black powder guns,in the Catskill Mountains of New York. (more info here: http://www.shandakenprimitivebiathlon.net/)

The body of the pouch is made from cowhide, calf hair hide, and pig hide.

Happy New Year!

Great job! If you don't mind me asking, is the pillow ticking glued somehow? With what? Thanks for sharing.

For light colored fabric like this I use a very thin layer of white Elmer's glue.
