This is my first purse with a zipper.  Modified from a Don Gonzales pattern.  Thanks for all the great ideas I have picked up on this forum.

The blue fringes are surprising touch of whimsy-- a nice idea!
Can you do a closeup on that tooled flap? Western floral isn't my thing, but I still love to look at and learn from good tooling, no matter the style.

Great tooling! Audacious choice of colors … looks gorgeous!

 

If you don't mind me nitpicking...

I've never done any buckstitching but I assume that slits that weren't angled but right ON the guideline, would produce pointed stitches that would look even better.

Really nice purse. I wish I  knew how to put a zipper in. Can I see what your purse looks like from the top?

Shedhunter would take picture, but purse has moved out of state.  Great video on Don Gonzalez YouTube that explains in detail.  Good luck
