Black Bag from front.jpg

I ABSOLUTELY love this bag, I want it for myself!! I would love to see more pictures of it, inside and out...it is BEAUTIFUL!! You are VERY talented. If you don't mind me asking, what type of leather did you use.

Thank you Cece, I'm glad you like it.

I made it as a practice run for a bag a friend of a friend wants made. It's to his specs and almost ridiculously big but ideal for me to pack a travelling leatherwork kit in for the future

I used a discounted Black Waxy leather I bought online with out really knowing what to expect. It has quite a thick finish on it which makes the leather look a bit plastic-y and proved quite tough to stitch. However the up side is that it will definitely keep any water out and meant I didn't have to add any supporting material to the large sides. I'm curios to see how it ages.

When I've got some time I'll add some more picks.

Cheers
