Nice work Randy, wish I could sew leather that well. One question, if you were to keep the pens from rubbing up against each other, and at the same time keep the smooth look, how would you do it?

MrSharkbaitI would consider a 3-step approach. 1. I would use thin and soft leather to make a pen roll (like a watch roll) to hold the amount of pens I would like to carry - for me it would be 5 or more pens. 2. Once the pen roll is created, keep the pen roll flat and sandwich it in-between two larger pieces of leather that will be used as the outside front & back covers of the pen case. I would also use a small amount of leather glue in select spots around the outside of the leather pen roll to keep it in place while inside the two large pieces of leather.. 3. Then I would cross-stitch around the outer edges of the two large outside pieces of leather. the finished case should end up looking like the one I made, just thicker and now with separate leather-lined slots for each pen.
Note: This is off the top of my head and would take a bit more planning. as well as a fare amount of stitching to make the joining of the inside pen roll and outside leather covers look decent.
