Leather Sand Bag



Jamie bought this black leather face bandana for riding the Harley to work in the colder months, but ended up not using it because it fogged up his eyewear. I had mentioned I needed to pick up some leather scrap to make a sand bag to *dome* my sheet metal ~ shortly after, he handed me the bandana :) I stitched all but a 3" opening ~ turned it rightside out ~ used a funnel to fill 3/4 of the way with *Play Sand* I bought at Home Depot ~ closed the opening with a zigzag stitch until I was sure it wasn't going to leak. It works great! Using the soft leather bag, gives the metal more of an 'organic' look, which I like a lot.

Hi Stormy!
Thanks for stopping by my blog. It's not to exciting but it's mine! I like your music.. Jane says is my ringtone at the moment! I thought that was funny, not a real mainstream song. :)

Hi Sherice!
The first time I heard that song, was a few months ago, when my daughter had it playing while visiting, lol.

That's funny about it being your ringtone!

Thanks for stopping by!
