Guest shannon lee Report post Posted June 30, 2011 I am looking for an experienced bag maker to help me make bags and purses from recycled leather (old jackets). Please have a walking foot machine and do neat work. Ideally I'd like to find someone in Brooklyn, NYC but am open to other places. Please let me know if you are interested. Email leatherbagsewing@gmail.com for more details. Thank you! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest shannonlee Report post Posted June 30, 2011 I am looking for an experienced bag maker to help me make bags and purses from recycled leather (old jackets). Please have a walking foot machine and do neat work. Some info: • The bags are lined with a natural cotton canvas and the leather is pretty soft - since it comes from jackets. • I use any pocket detailing from the original jacket that I can. • I use bonded 69 thread with a flat walking foot machine. • Bags take between 1-2 hrs (depending on the bag) • I cut everything by hand - but probably should move to clicking eventually. Do you have a clicker? Ideally I'd like to find someone in Brooklyn, NYC but am open to other places. Please let me know if you are interested. Email leatherbagsewing@gmail.com for more details.
