    Talking A few more haversacks...

    this time in 11oz. tartan! This material was ordered before Christmas by my wife as a Christmas present but due to shipping issues it didn't arrive until mid Jan. Better late than never I say These sacks are 9" by 11" w/39" straps. I would've liked the straps to have been a bit longer but to match the straps to the sett on the rear it just didn't work out that way

    Thanks Terry & Kenneth. That was exactly what I was thinking Everything I've sewn to this point has been done by hand so it may take me a bit for a vest but I think I'll give it a try. I'll post pics of it when I'm done
