Jagdtachens. Hunting pouches. Nothing fancy or frilly. Just functionable and sturdy. ( With my apologies for photo quality) First is a little pouch for my little .40 flinter, Annchen. The small bag knife by Nathan Allen of Indiana Next is a bag I finished just yesterday for my .62, Liebchen. Nice and roomy. Stuck an 1 1/4" gusset in this bag. At it’s new hanging place on the wall (right)

At the moment I am caught up on leather work and gun related projects. Started working on some additions and upgrades to my wardrobe. I finally worked up the courage to cut my 4 point Hudson Bay blanket and some coyote pelts to make a warmer capote. Also working on an 1830's style shawl collar vest. It is brown duck canvas, with natural muslin lining and a secret, hidden, layer of 105 gram Thinsulate insulation. Next on the list are a hunters frock and a hunter orange weskit so I can be legal and still look period correct for black and white photos during my hunts.

PDS,
Very nice capote!!! Good work! I have an early French style (circa 1700) with pleated rear skirt and big buttoned cuffs! They are warm and keep you toasty.
I dunno what to start next. I do have some small leather projects to do. Gotta get more thread. Used up my remainder on these two bags and some geegaws.

My latest project. 1830's style shawl collar vest. Cotton duck canvas with muslin lining. 105 gram thinsulate insulation. Brass buttons with shanks soldered on. Should add some warmth under the new capote. If this snow keeps up I'm going to have an entire new wardrobe for spring rendezvous season.
