Great use for that leather, it's got enough body to make a great bag with that "turned style" Thank you!

RockyAussie Posted July 31, 2017 Report Posted July 31, 2017 Wow I wish I was anywhere near that capable on my first bag. Very tasteful edging tint and so well done and the stitching is superb.

The edge tint is the natural internal leather color from the 'Parisian Blue' finish; hubby likes a more 'natural' look, so after some experimentation just used a little tokonole and beeswax. Thanks, too, for all the info you share, couldn't have made it without the amazing knowledge shared on this forum. Quote

I have no clue how to do zipper so, one up on me haha. Why thank ya! The zipper wasn't too bad (though I did say a few choice words trying to get it straight). Used double sided basting tape, and a super long zipper so I could unzip it far enough to stitch one side at a time in the pony. And a couple of stiff scotches Quote
Members Stetson912 Posted August 1, 2017 Members Report Posted August 1, 2017 It's amazing your stitching stayed straight with the scotch... Unless you're like me and see a little crooked any way, scotch would even it out hehe Quote
