Wine Totes

Recommended Posts

When I got back into leatherwork a few months ago, my wife felt threatened because she thought family and friends would like my stuff more than her quilting (poppycock). So we came up with a way to collaborate by combining her quilting with my leather and including our mutual interest in wine: quilted wine totes with a tooled leather base. It's been a lot of fun working with her on the design and fabrication.

Thanks for the kind words.  We came up with a few different designs during the process, some more successful than others.  With 7 kids between us and all their spouses, doing these bags gives us a way to give each kid something fairly unique for Christmas.

Right now she is working on a patchwork leather bag using my chrome-tan scraps (that's what prompted her to organize my scrap bin the other day).  It should be interesting once it's complete.
