Title: First try building basket quiver.
Post by: Jerry Jeffer on March 14, 2007, 07:03:00 AM
I always like the build alongs. I am limited on tools and not the most handy guy around. Found the build along for basket quiver and thought, yep I can do that. So, here it is.

EXCELLENT looking quiver.  Making a basket quiver is on my agenda for the near future.  I just finished a longbow that I'll be shooting (along with other times) with some Midieval reenactors (read that as SCA) and a basket quiver seems more appropriate.  Not quite a linen bag on the ground or arrows sticking out of my belt, but at least not modern looking.  I have already made the straps for it by card weaving.  It's a way to weave without a loom, just some string and playing cards with holes in them.

I LOVE that quiver! My hubby got one for me a few years ago because I just loved the looks and the "woodland's style"... very lightweight too... an outstanding job and love the color  :)  

Just had to applaud your work, it is beautiful!

What are the advantages of basket quivers?
Are they cooler in the summer?
