rosiart Report post Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) My daughter had requested a new purse as hers had gotten rather disreputable. She requested it as a crossbody bag. I used some designer lambskin I got a while back at Tandy, but used a dyed veggie tan for the strap. It is lined but the pic I got of the inside before I gave it to her is too dark to show much detail. Does anyone know what the longevity of these specialty leathers with the smooth finish is likely to be? Edited June 2, 2014 by rosiart Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CTaylorJr Report post Posted June 2, 2014 Excellent job! She will be happy with that for a long time to come! I'm guessing the wear will be determined by the use of the bag and how it's treated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rohn Report post Posted June 2, 2014 Great job on the purse. I am sure she will get a lot of complements on it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rosiart Report post Posted June 3, 2014 Thanks, Charlie and Rohn. She tells me she loves it which is what I was hoping for. Also, some of her friends asked if I was selling them, so I think they liked it too. :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CTaylorJr Report post Posted June 3, 2014 When the friends of the kiddos want one as well, that is a true compliment to the work, especially from the young women! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
