plains style quiver for my daughter

richardzane:
thanks for the great comments!

don't know if anyone has tried this before... I likely RE-discovered a great tool for stitching using a turkey wing quill tip.
select a quill that fits through the hole size you're punching ,cut the quill off, reem it out a little so the leather lacing can slide in.
then cut a sliver of quill from the discarded to slide it in alongside the leather..jambed in it holds pretty well and
works better than a bone needle with a eye, which tends to double over the lacing causing thickness.
its also easier on the fingers pushing it through.

Pappy:
Thats pretty cool,thanks for sharing. :)
