alpha2 Report post Posted July 4, 2018 Second attempt at Messenger Bag for the boss. A lot of experiments with the first one, just a couple on this one. I tried some folded edges, and an interior piece with pockets for cel-phone, pen and keys. This one is a bit wider and deeper. Also went with a different closure than the first. The first one had a magnetic closure, and I hated it. The flap was fairly flexible, and lining up the two parts was difficult. I also stitched the 2-ply strap and flap on this one.

alpha2 Report post Posted July 4, 2018 Thanks, guys! The blue was the boss's choice. I showed her all the colors I have in stock, but she's seen a couple of belts I did in black bridle with the blue. Jeff Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scoutmom103 Report post Posted July 5, 2018 I really like the blue thread against the black. Is it also out of black bridle? I also like the removable holder. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alpha2 Report post Posted July 5, 2018 Yes, black bridle. The first removable sleeve I made for Bag 1.0 didn't include a coin purse...I was "informed" that wouldn't do! Mrs. A2 doesn't begrudge me anything I spend on leatherwork stuff, so she gets whatever she wants. Jeff Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
