Fox and Deerskin Back Quiver

Hi you all. Been awhile since I last posted. Been busy lately and made my second quiver for a guy who brought over this gray fox. The fox face slipped during tanning. I told the guy I'd make him a quieter quiver than the one he told me that he wasn't happy with. He was just wanting a wallhanger It wasn't quite a prime fur yet.. pretty however. I still have the bottom straps to make and thought I'd make those adjustable with some clips in the ends and also add a good size metal ring for the large shoulder strap. He uses a crossbow so I've tried to make this accomodate several broadhead and a couple mechanical tips.. whatever those are. I don't know a thing about archery.. but I have searched for pictures of others quivers. First I made a brain tanned quiver and then added the fox skin to it. on the leather I sandwiched some rawhide in the bottom and then alongside the bottom.. not sure if it was overkill or not but I was trying to imagine.. HOW- to.. when i was basically clueless about how to make a quiver, so I guess this project was my best guess.  It stitched up pretty quick.

Thanks for looking. I've been wanting to make a quiver for some time.
