    That is a lovely bag, when I make messenger bags it seems that a few stitches get astray but that doesn't take anything away from the over all look,and as I said it's lovely

    I have the cowboy 227r ,you bought the right model, the 3200 would of been the correct one. I play around and practice sewing with the cowboy, but i just don't feel in control. I would have to hold bag up in the air to sew because of the table.

    I have a cowboy but never use it, a waste of money in my case. I sew everything by hand

    My friend wanted a wallet with just 2 pockets, and fold money in between and use a band to hold wallet closed

    The pattern,and instructions are great well worth the money, and as I did it's way to change pattern,from zipper pocket to flap, and instead of big front pocket I added 2 small pockets. There is 40 pages of instructions and pattern.

    Okay I just didn't want to break any rules I it's attache case by K.E. Hockenberry, and it's 40 pages long and if I can do anyone can, the instructions are awesome, you print out the pattern then tape them together, I then used oak pattern paper to make a real good pattern.the best attache case pattern I found. http://www.bighousedaddy.com/

    I got the pattern for messenger bag from K.E. Hockenberry it's 43 pages long, I just changed the pattern to suit me. The information is well done and you can use the basic pattern and change it up to make it different. The best one I found.

    I apologize for just one picture, I erased the other pics, I found this pattern on line ,the pattern came with over 20 some pages and made this bag easy to make, on the back of back is a 3 inch flap with snaps for back pocket. I don't know if am allow to tell where I got pattern, if you seen my other bag then you can seen how I altered the pattern.

    I sanded the leather and dyed with oil dye the belt came out with light and dark spots and everyone liked the look so I left it that way
  19. mike6642
    The leather was a piece of oil tan , I bought the pattern on line and changed it for zipper pocket and 2 front pockets

    I started to put lining in the wallets, looks great and is different from the usual

    Don't open just s prop for three ring bearer to carry, my daughter insisted that I make something to replace pillow for ring, instead of a bible I just folded up some leather and I'll put a ribbon on the book for wedding.
  24. mike6642
    My daughter wanted me to make something out of leather for rings, she didn't want a pillow so I made this book , I have to add a ribbon
