that is beautiful joanne.how do you keep the fringe twisted?i've heard you can put aloe vera on the fringes and twist them.never tried it.me and grizz has some deer hocks in the freezer that were planning on tanning.i inspire you then you inspire me.your other bag with the blue beads made me give beading a try.i think with the right diet(haha)and plenty of practice i might grow up and be a beader.so thank you.i'm already working on another beaded bag.

I just stuck the fringe under the tap then blotted it with a towel good, then twisted each fringe away.. they dry quite a bit stiffer than SOFT.. like they were before doing that.. but I like the 'twist' look.. thanks for the compliments folks.. I sold it to Blade in TX today.. that was fast. I think I should make some more.

Good job on that bag Joanne, I love it! Was it hard cutting up the b-tan for that strap? I don't have what it takes .... but it's beautiful.

Gee thats Purdy... I'd use an antler tine as a button with a leather loop for a closure.

I really like the fringe, nice and narrow and twisted too. Never cared much for fringe that was all the same width and length. Nice dewbag.
