JohnBarton Report post Posted August 29, 2011 These are two we did recently. The first is from a purse we bought at the market and decided to do our own version. The customer wanted something that feels like Coach but not like a saddle. She is happy with the pix so hopefully she will like it just as much when she gets it. She asked that it be made large enough for file folders so we did that. The second is from a pattern we found in a book. I don't know which book but it's a simple hobo style with a little flair.

JohnBarton Report post Posted September 12, 2011 Very nice. Did you use stiffeners for the larger bag? ps - I like your logo Yes we did. We use an lightweight iron on stiffener. Karen designed the logo herself. The second one is nice too........ but I really like the first one - Great Design! I love the handles & shoulder strap. Nice work! Thank you. I wish we could take credit for the design but it's mostly a copy from some no-name bag we found at the market - which itself was probably a copy of some famous brand somewhere. We did our own modifications according to the client's needs and our supplies. VERY NICE BAGS !!! What type & weight leather did you use on both bags ? We used 4-5oz for the first bag. For the second 6oz. The first one is veg tan for the medium brown and nappa for the dark brown. For the second it's veg tan for the center pieces and black nappa leather for the sides and handles.
