Bob Blea Report post Posted June 15, 2013 Hello all, This was a clutch purse I made for a customer recently. She had a floral belt that she liked and wanted a similar design on the purse. The belt was just a flowing design with leaves done in the Sheridan style, so I came up with a purse design that was the same kind of leaf. The interior is a Tandy kit. She had seen a similar purse my wife had made and wanted that specific interior, so I ended up using the Tandy kit guts with my own leather exterior. I also used round holes for the lacing just to match the ones pre-punched in the interior. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, and my customer was thrilled with it. She was raving about all the detail. Thanks for looking and any comments or critiques are welcome. Bob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
