Here's the original request we received: I want to use this pattern but would like to alter it. I want to put an opening in the front top seam and I wish to put a pocket in the front seam, so that I can attach things to it. So that is exactly what we made her. Here are some details on the project from the maker: Hi Monika, We would like to submit a proposal for your consideration to a create a custom money clip . This clip will be made of black Horween leather for the interior and pocket, the exterior will be black alligator embossed leather. It will measure appx. 6" by 1 3/8" when folded it will be appx 3" by 1 3/8". The magnets will be 1"x2" sewn inside. Outside will have one pocket 2.25" long, open at the fold edge. This will be hand stitched with either dark charcoal or black bonded nylon thread. We should be done with it within 3 weeks of acceptance of the proposal. If you have any questions, or see any needed changes, please let us know and we will work it out and adjust the proposal. This will be shipped insured to you by USPS priority mail upon receiving final payment. $7 is appx. shipping cost, the clip itself will be $45.00. Please let us know if we have answered all questions. Thank you so much. Rick Glover Blue Duck Creations

Blue Duck Creations are makers of designer handbags, totes, bags and cases for any need. We can create a unique bag just for you using our materials or yours. We enjoy the collaborative process it takes to create exactly what you desire. We mainly use leather for exteriors, but we can work with many types of materials. We can even take a leather jacket, or other object, that belonged to someone special and turn it into a stunning creation that will remind you of them with every use. ReLoving [our word for reusing, recycling, upcycling] items that you have been saving can make you love them in a totally new way. Having completed an intense designer handbag making course, leather working classes, along with 40+ years sewing experience, I am confident we can create the purse, bag, case, or other creation you have envisioned.
Blue Duck Creations also has a component called Duck Creek Custom Rod Builders. We have been making custom fishing rods for over 15 years. We design and build a fishing rod for fresh or salt-water fishing that will match the reel you have chosen. No matter if it is for casting, spinning, trolling, jigging, or fly fishing we can make a rod as fancy or as subtle as you wish.
Although you may think these two are very different, they have many of the same requirements. Most important to us though, is making a custom project with the utmost attention to detail that will thrill you every time it is used.

For Hand Made Leather Top HatRick and Kathi at Blue Duck Creations are THE BEST ! I was looking for someone to try and duplicate a very particular leather tophat from a picture I had found. I don't think they could have possibly done it any better. It was absolutely perfect and Rick was very methodical and involved in the process from start to finish. If he had any questions about what I wanted he would ask before proceeding. He didn't just assume. He was extremely pleasant to work with as well. I would highly recommend Blue Duck Creations to anyone. So if you have a project that needs a custom attention, look them up. You WON'T be disappointed.

For Glen's WalletIt has been an absolute pleasure working with Blue Duck Creations on this wallet. They were in constant communication with me through the design and crafting of the wallet to make sure that i got exactly what I was looking for. The wallet is perfect and looks so good that I almost hate putting it to use. I highly recommend you consider Rick and Kathi for any leather projects that you are considering.

For Men’s bifold walletI loved working with Kathi and Rick at Blue Duck Creations. They created a beautiful leather wallet as a gift for my son. They included every detail I requested and kept me advised of their progress with e-mails and photos. Communication was great. The quality of the leather they chose was great and the workmanship was amazing. I needed to make a change to the design of the wallet and they made the change without hesitation. They completed the project in plenty of time for my deadline, even though I asked for a change in the design midway through their progress. I recommend using Blue Duck Creations and I will definitely be using them in the future.

For Business Credit Card WalletCould not ask for a better experience! Rick asked very detailed questions along the way and made a few suggestions so I could ensure I was getting exactly what I wanted. The project was completed in a few days and shipped and received two days later. I highly recommend them.
