Contributing Member rdb Posted July 9, 2012 Contributing Member Report Posted July 9, 2012 This is the first one I made, so there's quite a few things I might change, but overall it's a decent bag. The customer wanted longer handles, so the wife could shoulder carry it, but to me, they're a bit long for the size of the bag...whatever Lola wants.... There's a helluva lot of engineering in bags, so to just whip one out like this was a bit difficult, but the next ones will go easier, and probably look somewhat different. It's a pull up leather from Zack White's. Quote

Ambassador Luke Hatley Posted July 9, 2012 Ambassador Report Posted July 9, 2012 Fine looking Bag. I like the way you did the welts on the end seams. Quote
Contributing Member rdb Posted July 9, 2012 Author Contributing Member Report Posted July 9, 2012 Thanks, Luke, and Jazznow. Luke, welting is easy if you remember to sandwich it in before you sew....lol Quote

Contributing Member rdb Posted July 16, 2012 Author Contributing Member Report Posted July 16, 2012 Thanks all y'all for the compliments. Customer called me today, and said the boss liked her new bag. Shhh, don't point out the mistooks...lol Quote
Members Glendon Posted July 17, 2012 Members Report Posted July 17, 2012 Very nice little duffel design. I need some serious practice with welting myself. The only thing I might change in the next ones is move the handles to the other side of the buckles if customers want them long enough to shoulder carry. That might make the length look a bit more in proportion. Quote
Kevin King Posted July 18, 2012 Report Posted July 18, 2012 Looks real nice. I also like the welting. Good job, my friend. KK Quote
