Bull   take masking tape  3/4"  wrap backwards around flask (stickiesideout) a few times around flask ... then reverse stickie side down... cut off carefully.
make leather a smidgon bigger and/or wet n stretch while ya stitch.
Do not use groundhog leather...

Just look at a few that are made and then make you own pattern..

Leather sewing is very forgiven..   

It's not what tool you use to hunt with.
It's that you use the tool Legally and Ethically
