OhSewPrettyLeather Report post Posted May 9, 2015 Hey y'all! I've been mia a little bit tending to the not so fun tidbits of life. Anyhow, just wanted to share a new bag I made for my mommy for Mother's Day. I didn't plan right so it will arrive there a couple days late. Oops lol! Constructive criticism always welcomed Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thor Report post Posted May 9, 2015 You're far better at making bags than I am, so the only constructive critique will be - tell her you're just too early for next year's mother's day and give her a cake tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grey Drakkon Report post Posted May 9, 2015 The texture of that bag looks so soft, and it keeps that soft look in the straps which is really nice. I had to really look for something to pick on, and that would be the ends of the straps stand out a bit. They don't look untidy or anything, but I'd be tempted to paint the ends black (or if you want to add some flash, make them red!) I guess they stand out to me since everywhere else ends by being curved and tucked under, and they just kind of stop. Like I said though, I had to look hard to find something to pick on so I doubt anyone else is going to freak out over it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OhSewPrettyLeather Report post Posted May 10, 2015 Thank you for all the kind words everyone! It's really encouraging 😊 You're totally right Grey, I was thinking about the strap ends too... I've since done a little trimming and put some edge kote on it. Looks way better lol! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
