More Leather

 Actually, this is the featherweight case and the last post had a rose in the center that I hated.  So I guess I just should not try roses.  However, I like to paint daisies.  Much, much happier with this.
 The next three pictures show the preparation for stitching the bottom piece to the main body of the quiver.  The Mr. tacked the leather back to the wood to stabilize it and scribed the line to be stitched. The stitching spaces were impressed into the leather and the piece then trimmed.

We took the dogs to the park yesterday and since this is a holiday weekend and the weather was good, the park was  a busy place.  Lots of people were walking dogs and the picnic crowd was there.  Because the lake always attracts those who like to fish, as we walked around it, there were lots of anglers.  It was a family affair and so nice to see so many young kiddos trying their luck at catching the "big one".
