I just finished my first purse, which was a gift  for my wife. The leather is veg - tan 4-5 oz, with embossed crocodile pattern and the color is Tandy - Eco-Flo stain ( Bordeaux). The inside has eight card slots and a zippered compartment. Dimensions are approx. 9.5" x 5.5" x 2.5" deep.

Looks very good for a first one. Machine or hand stitched, if I may ask?

Hand stitched, with the exception of the strap.

Nice work, i like it. Would have been good if the imprint could have been symmetric

Thanks for pointing that out! I had not noticed or thought about it. I will be more aware when I do the next one. This is why I like to show other leather crafters my efforts, often they will notice details I overlooked. It's all part of the learning process.

Sometimes being off centre like this can be OK. The least desired option, IMHO, is close but no cigar.

Excellent job. I like the colour.
