Switched material, but same tutorial.  Took a minute to figure out the process, but it went quick once I did.  I like that you can work off the spool of material, rather than cutting it and hoping you have enough to finish.

That looks fantastic!  Excellent job! Thumbs Up

Do you have a plan for the cords?  Braid, or just loop a single strand through?

No clue!  This is my first time making the pouch separate from the cords.  I'm not entirely sure how to attach them.

Just as that straw (or whatever it is) is going through the loops at the end of the pouch, just run your cords through.  If it's a single strand, loop it through and tie a knot.  Or if you want a braid, you can pass multiple cords through and start the braid.

Admittedly there could certainly be a fancier method, but that's outside my knowledge. Grin

That’s a nice looking pouch. I bet with some experience in the process this technique could make some  really interesting designs. I’ll have to look into it.

This is the best I have ever done. Very good clean stone projection, good accuracy, and comfortable to use. 32 inch sling
