Recreate this bag

Recommended Posts

I'dI'd like to recreate this bag . the design of our lady of Guadalupe I'm creating on a piece of veg tan and then I'll cut it out to make it into a patch to sew on . but what leather would be best for the body of the bag ? That leather looks quite soft in the pictures something around deerskin I'm assuming? I havent worked with any soft leather as of yet so i wasnt sure if its best to make the body of the bag with a veg tan instead.  I want this to be quite durable I'll be making a detachable strap for it as well . I know I can use deerskin strips or other varieties of leather for the bits that hang down like fringe but should I punch holes for those along the sides ? Also if I decide to go with the green colored body of the bag what's the best way to do it ?  I know this is a lot of questions but any tips would be helpful . thank you !
