Here are some photos of a drum stick roll I made for Christmas. I’ve made just a few of these but I really like this design. Along with Seed & Sawdust (my line of gardening tool holders) I also plan to release of a line of good for musicians this year. Not custom really but well designed and unique. Guitar straps, stick bags, cases, pick holders and other various items. Keep an eye out!

Custom tool bag. Made of oil tanned leather in sunset from and solid brass rivets and snaps. Designed from the perspective of a tote bag with the orientation of a tool bag. No pockets on the outside for convenient stowaway ability. Some machine stitching and some hand stitching.
The joy of making a bag is in the creation of a space, a place, in a case, with a base. Hehe 🙃!

Just over here hand stitching. Little tedious tasks yield large results. As I tell myself, patience comes to those who wait.

In the middle of hand stitching the inside and outside pockets onto this custom messenger bag. This technique of keeping the bag upright was thrown together in the minute I needed it. It was highly inspired by ‘s boat tie system for this.

Working on a few custom messenger bags at the moment. These are pockets for one of them and I’ll tell ya true they are a pain to put on, but they yield a slick result. There are two ways to look at design for making. You can either look at it from the easiest way to make it, or you can look at it from the ideal aesthetic. Both are good, and the dance between them is the romance of form and function.
