It's been quite some time since the last contribution was made to this thread. Here's my tribute to all who paid the ultimate price on 9/11 twenty one years ago, today.

I made this during the past two weeks while I had Covid. I created my own pattern based loosely on a current Brooks canvas bag. The material is goatskin, hand stitched primarily with a Speedy Sticher sewing awl, and coated with Resoline to provide some water and dirt protection. A 1/4 inch thick dense foam sheet is used as an interior stiffener. I need to add Velcro under the end of the closure flap. However, I'm still undecided on what will look the best.
Comments and suggestions welcome. Thanks for looking.
