This is a purse made from the same Wickett and Craig harness leather that I made a briefcase from.  The customer saw the briefcase and loved the look. Once again critiques are welcome.  This is the first time I've made a purse.

Very nice, and thanks for the pics of the inside.  Lots of times you can learn a lot by seeing the innards as well as the outside.  Nice color as said previously.  Wondering whether you considered lining it?

I did consider lining it Tugadude but this leather actually has a nice finish and is fairly smooth.  The lady I made it for is also a horse person and likes the leather look.  This was the first time I have done a purse and I like how it turned out but I did learn a lot and have found a few things I would do differently on another one.  I'm also glad a made a good pattern for this one.

The bag itself was all hand stitched.  I'm trying to get better at it.  The strap I used my CB4500 to stitch.

I like it, simple yet effective design and excellent finish.

Interesting use of a conway buckle for the strap too.

Thanks Wedgetail.  I finally got it to the customer a couple of weeks ago and she loved it.  That's the most important thing of all.
