Knife or scissors, stitching irons, maul or mallet, round punch, pair of harness needles, waxed thread.
Materials:
For the back piece, frame and front base: 3.5-5 oz, I used 3.5-4 oz Buttero veg. Should be of firm temper. Medium temper might also work quite fine.
For the quilted inlay: around 1-1.5 oz lambskin, sheepskin or goat skin. Should be thin and elastic for best results.
Padding: a piece of any soft material such as foam or synthetic fiber.
Closure strap: 5-6 oz.
Hardware:
1 x button stud (or Sam Browne). Replace it with a small snap if you want.
