Motorcycle bag

[Mattsbagger]

A bag I made for the wife for when we are riding. Entirely 5 oz W/C . A pattern I bought off Etsy. New territory for me as there is no glue used. The maker pre punched all the holes at 1.8 mm I used a diamond awl to prepunch. Used .8 Blue Tiger thread. Brass rivets. Mulch harder than copper.lol All Brass hardware.

That looks awesome. I feel ya on the brass. It is tough to work with

Awesome. You've got nice consistent dying and stitching. It looks really well done.

[Mattsbagger]

Thank you. I dye with an airbrush. The spacing on the stitching is longer than I’m used to. The wife likes it. So wife happy Matt happy.lol

Is that blue, or Egyptian Blue? I have the blue, but the Egyptian Blue is fantastic! I wish I could get it for the CowBoy 4500. CowBoy has a Serafil thread that is close.

BTW, great project!

Oh, and if my experience is any indication, when the missus wears something fine, the orders start flowing in. It's a bike thing.
