Handmade Antler Pins & Needles By Yooper.
Yooper is one of our group members in America, and he makes a lot of his own gear. Below is an image of part of Yooper's sewing kit, showing the antler needles and pins he made himself. I think there is something very special in producing something practicle like this and actually being able to carry it with you and use it when needed.
I think these pins and needles are a work of art, beautiful.

Original Shot Pouch & Horn.
Possibly early to mid 18th century. Note the button closure and the ball or bullet board/block.
My shot pouch that I made many years ago.
