Purse for Christmas

[Double U Leather]

Here's the first purse I've ever built. Thanks to Bruce Johnson for the patterns. Of course, being the engineering wonder that I am, I had to tweek the pattern to make it a bit different. When it's all said and done, what was supposed to be a purse, looks more like a bowling ball bag!! Oh well, hopefully the wifey will like it. If not, she can sell it at the flea market. Anyway, give it a look and let me know. Any critiques are welcome. Thanks.

I wish you guys would quit posting pictures of the purses you've made for your wives. Mine is getting pretty upset as she doesn't have one....ohhhh I'm in a heap of deep, LOL!

Beautiful job Tim! It doesn't look like a bowling bag and I'm sure your wife will agree with me. The only way that purse will see the flea market is if it's on her arm! You done good!

I apologize, Wayne, I don't know why I thought that. Please just chock it up to my age! Meanwhile I'm trying to dislodge my foot from my mouth! But I meant what I said about the purse....you did a good job on it!
