Just completed this morning for my wife's Christmas present, nothing like cutting it fine hey This time with English bridle leather front and back as well as the detail trim around the flap. Wanted to do something a bit different, I think the contrast between the croc and the bridle works well and the brass bar gives her somewhere to clip keys and stuff to. What do you think folks, you like??

Thanks Alex. Yes all my own designs and everything is hand sewn. I like to do things nice and traditional, so simple designs, linen thread, pig skin or kid lining and solid brass buckles. Glad you like.

Hey folks, Thought I would post some pics of one of my briefcases and some bits and pieces I've made. All a bit croc print heavy I realise, just the pics I've chosen. The curvy handbag ended up with twin rolled handles and a Sam Brown buckle.

Appologies for highjacking your thread but has anyone tried these https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/209814602/leather-craft-tool-3pcs-stitching-punch?ref=shop_home_active_12 Look nicely made but the points do look a little "fragile" Any thoughts??
