I like the way you made it flat on the body side of the holster. That increases comfort and ads nice boning to the outside.
Very, very nice work young man.
Making them flat on the body side, or off-set stitching, I believe it's called, seems to be the thing these days among holster makers. I have one on order from TT Gunleather beoing made that way that may even be delivered later today. As far as boning, I don't see any boning on the outside of the OP's holster; the basket stamping would pretty much cover that up anyway, don't you think? Now don't get me wrong, the American Tactical Import 1911's have nice lines, as does any 1911, which would make hand boning/molding stand out nicely. I also like the contrast the white thread shows; I like white against brown, cordovan or mahogany colored leather especially. For black; I'd stay with black. I would like to see a double row of stitching though; especially around the inside of the body where it sets up against the pistol and around the belt slots. That would really make it pop, or look great, as well as adding strength.
