Holster Decisions + Watercolors

Holster 001 : jean version + printed cotton version (with stabilizer, aka fusible interfacing)
I am having trouble deciding on a closer and / or interior / back zip to make this secure. A good friend of mine came up with an idea to make it even sturdier (with a plastic) that I will try soon, but for now, the stiff fusible interfacing is working better than the jean version (too floppy). I love the clean look of both, though. Thoughts?

And here's a few paintings I did on my last trip to CT.  I've just been playing around, but I am happy with the results!
(These are for sale, $20.00 each, over at my Etsy Shop; MarthaHaskins)

Happy Thursday and Happy Travels!

{packable} holster 001 + button-down transformation

holster 001 : patterned + sewn (upcycled joe's jeans!) : mission accomplished!!!
[many, many, MANY more of these in so many different styles + fabrics, to come. i have been sketching them and planning {packable} for years, all based on variations of this design!]

button-down transformation : needs some taking in, especially on the right side, but going well
