Members tboyce Posted August 27, 2014 Members Report Posted August 27, 2014 I downloaded this pattern from a Spanish website about a year back. Haven't made the purse yet but I did manage to get a picture of what the end product should look like. I translated from Spanish to English and from millimeters to inches and plotted it up on a PDF file. As before, you can take it to any office supply or print shop with a large format printer. The final print will be 42"x 30"If anyone makes one before me, upload the picture! I'd like to see it bolsa.pdf Quote

Members dbusarow Posted December 20, 2014 Members Report Posted December 20, 2014 I happened to be looking at the picture of this purse when my wife walked by. She wants one!! Thanks for the post and pattern Tom. Could you experienced bag makers chime in with recommendations for the leather? All I have is veg tan I use for holster, sheaths etc.. I do have some very nice 4-5 oz W&C that might work but I'm guessing that it might be too stiff for this pattern. What say you? Thanks, Dan Quote Dan Busarow dan@fishcreekleatherworks.com http://www.fishcreekleatherworks.com/

Members Grey Drakkon Posted April 18, 2015 Members Report Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) Should a chrome tanned leather be used for this, or a really soft veg tan? I'm not into purses, but my sister is so I thought this might make a good gift. Edited April 18, 2015 by Grey Drakkon Quote "Everyone with telekinesis, raise my hand!" -Repairman Jack
Members tboyce Posted April 18, 2015 Author Members Report Posted April 18, 2015 I would go with a chrome tan Quote
Members isaac Posted April 19, 2015 Members Report Posted April 19, 2015 I used veg tanned water buff calf around 2.0-2.2mm thickness.Worked well and allowed me to carve stamp as well. Quote
Members OhSewPrettyLeather Posted April 19, 2015 Members Report Posted April 19, 2015 Isaac would you be able to give me a little help with this one if I PM you? Quote
