Brass Report post Posted July 25, 2009 My wife is in need of a purse and like any good wannabe leather worker I convinced her to let me make it. Of course what I really wanted to do was tool it. and then dream that the sewing just 'happened'. Anyway, the pattern that she wants it not included in the kit that's sold today. It's a pattern that was sold sometime in the yesterdays that I had picked up some time ago from an ebay auction. I had it out and was perusing it getting ready to tool it when I lost it. It is now six months later and I still havn't found it. Does anyone out there have this pattern and could let me have a copy? brass Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deb59 Report post Posted August 11, 2009 Let me check in my files, I bought a bunch of purse patterns from an estate sale and I think I may have one. I will check tonight and get back to you on it. Thanks Deb Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Was it just the tooling design that you really needed? If so, have you already thought of laying that photo on a xerox copier and enlarging half of it to the 'full size' that you need for that spot on the purse? In a similar vein, I recently used a size 12 men's moccasin pattern, enlarged it on a xerox copier by 6%, and turned it into a size 13 men's moccasin pattern. They fit the young man just fine. - TexasLady Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Deb59 Report post Posted August 16, 2009 I checked my files, I don't have the revival hand bag pattern, the one I was thinking of is the Sierra. It is a similar shape and size of bag, but the tooling pattern is nothing like what you have pictured. The copier Idea works pretty well. I have used that method a time or two. Good Luck - Deb Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brass Report post Posted September 20, 2009 Thanks everyone. Sorry I dropped 'dropped of the face of the earth' for a couple of weeks... My wife and I just sold our house and moved. I just now finished putting my desktop back together. Anyway, I'm going to try the copier method and see how that works. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
