I've been asked by a LARPing in-law if I could make leather drawstring pouches. This was the result:
http://s217.photobucket.c...¤t=P1000901.jpgDesigned after Native American medicine bags, this 6" by 7" suede leather pouch is good for holding a variety of items. Pulling on the small loops OPENS the bag while pulling on the long loops CLOSES the bag which is quite handy. The long loops can then be used to further seal the bag shut for extra protection. I used leather lined cord rather than leather lacing for strength and looks. I very easily could add medallions or fringe to it as well. Hand sewn.
I can easily make these in red or black suede and the options for customization are endless. My query is that if I did make these, would people be interested in buying one?
The base cost for the bag would be about $25 with customization prices based on what people want. I will make more as examples.
This one has two different colored sides and a "simple scale fringe" which I would let go for about $29
