Big Papa Leather Report post Posted May 30, 2009 Here is a purse I recently finished up. It is from the Bruce Johnson pattern book, Bruce so kindly offered a month or two back. It is 5-6 oz Hermann Oak leather, with a brown 4-5 chap leather. All hand stitched. Including the zipper. It was a fun project. Thanks Bruce for the pattern and Thanks ATX for the chap leather Allen Oops missed the back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UKRay Report post Posted May 30, 2009 Leaving aside the great bag, Scissormedic has the best view off a veranda I have ever seen! Seriously, great bag - it must have taken you hours to produce. You really got that zipper looking good. Ray Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TomSwede Report post Posted May 31, 2009 The bag looks really good and the skull is awesome. The flame design is nice too. I really like that kind of star. Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Big Papa Leather Report post Posted June 2, 2009 Thanks for the comments. It was a fun project, but the stitching seemed like it would never get done! Andy- Sure use the skull if you like, I can send the digi copy I used if you like, hit me with a pm if your interested. UKRay- the view is MUCH nicer when the lake is full. We have a view of the cove and when the lake is at the proper level the grassy area you see above the bag is all water. If you look closely you can see a boat dock that is dryland. I spent part of the day Sunday "mowing" the lake. LOL! The area just to the right of the photo is owned by the community and is where the community park is located. We are going to take advantage of the low water level to bulldoze the boat slip area and create a better swim area for the kids. Tom- Yes the Nautical star is popular in tattoos. It is also my favorite as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
