    There is a lining (inner leather) in it so if I want to reset the D's, either sew through the lining or tear the outer and inner apart. Neither I want to, it still good to be used as hand carry...hehe Thanks for the advice. Hmmm..just have a quick search on google...that's handmade jewelry, different field, and it's kind of awkward to reach him as a stranger for such a question. I tried once month ago but no reply, Haha! Probably will looking for some leatherwork shops and see how things go.

    Thank you. The top D-ring installation on the rear side of backpack is too low, it makes the backpack leaned back when you put it on. A big mistake on pattern making sometimes it happens. I'm still in Malaysia right now, will be there on early September...no idea how it goes actually. A new start from zero, quite challenging. Wish me luck! hahaha!

    I am flattered, there are still a lot of things I need to learn and it could be better. Thanks for your suggestion.

    I will move to NYC soon (September 2016). Honestly, I have no network in this field and I'm looking for an opportunity to work in leatherwork. My skills are built from self taught and some short term courses so I don't have any certificate. I have great passion in leather bag making and I'm willing to learn. I would appreciate it if you could provide some useful suggestions. Skill: - Saddle stitch - Chrome-tanned leather edge finishing (by sanding and painting) - Leather bag making - Handbag design & pattern making (manually but I can transfer the pattern into AI file) - Sewing machine operating (I made fabric bags for 4 years and I used walking foot sewing machine to sew canvas. I prefer hand-stitch to machine stitch when it comes to leather.) My work samples: I'm not allowed to upload files more than 1.4mb so please refer to http://imgur.com/a/Sg7UO for my work samples' details. Thank you. Eric
