A Leather x Wool Weekender Bag

[DukeandDrummond]

Prototyping out a weekender style bag from wool and leather.

I've always loved these natural materials. Wool and leather. They seem to fit together, natural products for the natural world and so when I came across some affordable Greek surplus wool blankets I knew I'd have to experiment with making a bag out of them.

This was all hand stitched and has a canvas liner to the wool, something I might not repeat in future as it made elements of hand stitching more difficult. I'd also use a chunkier zipper. The zipper pull is Ostrich leather for some added flair.

Please post your photos here.  3rd party hosted photos frequently disappear due to changes in the host's policies, host out of business, users moving files, deleting files, closing their account or the account expiring.  When this happens, the post becomes worthless to all future users who are researching or looking for help to solve a problem.

Post your photos in jpg or png format.  They display automatically.  Many members will not download unknown files or file types.

If your files are too large to post here due to file size restrictions, you need to resize your files to fit.
