My new SassySackSingle whistle pouch

Whistle
1

When I saw PhilO’s green leather Sassafrass Whistle Roll, made by C&F’s own anniemcu, I decided to ask Annie if she had enough of the leather left over to make a SassySackSingle whistle pouch. Here’s what arrived in the mail yesterday…

The workmanship on this little beauty is absolutely wonderful. I highly recommend Annie’s whistle sacks (available from Sassafrass Grove Studio). My Greenwood whistle now has a nice new home. :smiley:

WOW! That looks great! I’m going to haf to see if I can’t save up some money to buy one of those! Great job anniemcu!

That looks sooooooo cool! Very nice work!

It was really a pleasure dealing with someone like Annie who doesn’t slack off on any detail and who follows through as promised and then some - she took that bag design out of my head and improved on it…

If you don’t mind Phil, I think I might ask her to make me one just lik yours. I love your work on detail Annie!

Sorry Andrew - that was a limited edition; just kidding. I don’t mind if Annie doesn’t; although if we ever show up in the same places I’ll be forced to return mine for some monogramming. :slight_smile:

Best,

Philo

Phil, Annie may never forgive you for getting us hooked on leather. That stuff is a b**** to work. It’s lovely, though. Just lovely. And Annie is truly a pleasure to deal with.

It’s really lovely, as I would have expected. I haven’t seen her around lately—maybe she is busy making whistle sacks.

Wow, those are some nice whistle rolls at SG. It’s given me some ideas of my own. Maybe it’s time to pull out my Mom’s old sewing machine.

Aww… shucks… (digging toe into dirt)

So glad you like it, Slude, my friend!

I’ve been adding to my blisters (and colorfull vocabulary) by doing yet another leather one, only BIG, which means more strategic pinning and handstitching … should be finished tomorrow. ARRRGGHHH!! YAY! OW!

Thank you all for your kind words. I very much appreciate them!
