Nice. I think for this specific design the best solution would have been a smaller buckle, but the idea of acomodating the ring is really good! I'll keep it in mind for future work! Thanks

Thank you! Inicialy I was going to use a different buckle but it looked wierd so I decided to go with this one. But it bothered me quite a lot, hahaha. What do you suggest to avoid it? In case I needed to use this buckle? It´s nice to hear that! Very satisfying to know I might have helped someone. Thank you!

Hey guys! I'm new here at the forum. Have learned a few things in the past but this is the first piece I'll be posting. It was my mother's birthday and after making a few smaller pieces it seamed like a good opportunity to put my skills to the test. After mainly making knife stealths and a couple of wallets, this was a much harder project that required quite a lot of planning ahead to make everything line-up correctly. I've made a video of the process so let me know what you guys think of how I made it and any suggestions of techniques and tools that might help me in future projects are welcome. I started with the Idea for 2 hard sides to the purse and a single piece of leather for the body and lid: Here I'm taking a look at how the collors from the stamped cloth and the internal yellow leather look: Using paper clips to glue and keep things in place while I drill the wholes and sew: Almost ready against the sunset light: Only a few steps away:
