Plans for Native American Buckskin Quivers
blindarcher:
Hi All. I am looking for plans for making native American buckskin quivers. Any suggestions are welcome!
Pat B:
Basically a Plain's style quiver is a long sleeve of soft leather with a stiffener stick attached along the top edge and the shoulder strap attached to the stiffener stick. This style quiver can be made where the fletching are covered by the sleeve or the fletching sticks out the opened end. Here are a few examples. Many of the Plain's style quivers were historically made with hait on hides but others were made with hairless buck skins. I've made both styles and they both work well.

I used these plans - they are based on Jay Massey's design from TBB II. (Remove space in https to activate!)

I'd be happy to post pics of my pattern with dimensions if you'd like.
All of mine are hand stitched but you could easily use lace to put it together.

Thanks guys!
