It’s made from a suede coat from a thrift store, sewn with 4lb. fishing line and a mattress needle, two of the heavy-duty snap buttons from Wal-Mart that you apply with a hammer for the shoulder strap. The shoulder strap was the belt from the coat.

I have enough for one more with matching bracer, I’m going to use upholstery thread in place of the fishing line for the second one. It didn’t take long at all and the suede only cost me $9 bucks [they wanted $12.99 but was able to get them down a little more].

Peace,

In primitive archery we use the materials we have available and that's what you have done.  ;)  You have made a nice quiver.  Looking forward to seeing the next one.   Pat

Looks good to me, I have an old leather jacket I was thinkin of just cutting one of the sleeves off and doing the same thing.
