G26/27 is no problem. The j-frame is no problem either, but I'd need the gun for the pattern and molding.

First I made a pattern with construction paper, complete with holes. Then I marked and punched the holes using wooden mallet and punch. There are also hand punches available for this purpose. Finally, I joined the leather and hand stitched it using a saddle-stitch, which is inherently stronger than the lock-stitch you'll get with the sewing awl.
No problem - glad to be a help! I'd love to be able to sell a few and make money to buy more leather, but I'd love even more to encourage others to learn to do it for themselves. There's a certain pride in personal craftsmanship.
Sell a man a holster, and he'll protect a gun. Teach him to work leather, and he'll buy more guns just so he can make holsters for them!
