Although I can see the need for improvement in my stitching, I am really happy with this. I used the Arthur Porter you tube videos as my starting point. I have had the leather for more than a year, waiting for this project I think. There are a few more pics on my blog. Thanks for looking.

Thanks, Aaron. I really like the colour of that leather and figured it would make a good purse for the spring ( if it ever arrives :-))

Very nice! It looks very clean and well done. I like the gray leather. I was looking at some gray Austin leather the other day. I had planned to buy some, but was disappointed at how the brown showed through once it aged a little and made it look purple. Your leather has no such problem. Very nice!

Thanks for the kind words Tom ,5spice, Monica and Miss Denise.

Monica, the leather is not gray but a kind of dusty aqua. Hard to describe but really pretty in person and very spring like. Guess the picture reads differently on your computer.

I am in a bit of a quandary though, as someone is asking me to make her one. I'm not sure I have enough leather left since I want to try and make matching sandals and the hardware was one of a kind. I wouldn't even begin to know what I should charge for something like this. Any idea?

I have no idea what you should charge, but I was just getting ready to ask you about the hardware when you stated that it was one of a kind :( You did a great job stitching, in my opinion. Do you have a double stitcher or did you run it through twice? Also, what is your blog address?
