Hair on hide tote with blood knots and cow horn

[RockyAussie]

Here is a bit of this weeks effort showing how a nice hair on hide becomes a tote.

Some purse accessories to come I guess...

Great stuff! I like the way the zipper is integrated too, and would like to make one like that at some point... the mrs always says that totes should have a way to close/lock.

Real pretty, I reckon those would moooove pretty quickly off the shelf!

Hi Gary, the lining is upholstery leather except for the inner pockets and the foam padding acts as a supple stiffner and is from Sekisui and is called Softlon 3002 which is 2mm thick.

Thanks Wedgetail, The outer pattern's pretty simple really just a standard A3 sheet with 40 mm squares cut out of the bottom corners. Stitch up the edges 8mm in and then again 8mm across the bottom corners and bingo.  Patterning and putting in the zip stuff and it gets a whole lot my interesting. I hope it does mooooove soon or at least before one of me cows gets to see it
