The pattern did come with an inside pocket. I'll need to resize those and post them. I see a lot of first timers on Facebook that started with Tony's patterns. He also posts an assembly video with each build. Give it a shot. It doesn't take a lot of tools to do his stuff.

That's a lovely bag.  I dream of doing it one day.  Where can I get that pattern.  I have some leather, which I am not sure how to use.  At least I will learn some thing.

Decided to drop in this morning before running out the door, and Glad I did!  That is a great item you created my friend and don't take any less that what you have decided to price it at!  I can recall when you were starting out and that is a testament to a willingness to your dedication to take on new things and make them great!  As I was sitting here admiring the work I was reflecting back on items that I had made and wanted to make, and I think that when I decided to try and make money out of producing leather items that I NEEDED to sell instead of doing it for fun it lost its fun appeal!  Keep it fun and create things that make you happy!

Looks awesome Mutt. I'm working through my first bag right now, it's the messenger bag from Leodis' packet. I got Acadia's Ruby premium pull-up for my bag. First time with their leather. It is beautiful stuff but scratches a bit easier than I'd like to see., wishin' I'd have went with the Crazyhorse after seeing yours.

Any reason you went with punched holes over slanted ones? Your stitching is so damned nice I thought you'd have went traditional. Don't get me wrong, the round holes look great on this, just curious is all.

Looks great other Matt! I have used his patterns before too. Instead of punching round holes I used my diamond awl and punched each hole individually. Lol That took a few minutes.

Gorgeous bag!! Congratulations.

Great looking bag, looks broken in and comfortable from the get go. I echo all the others in admiration of that front closure system, it especially fits the look of the bag . Nice work.

Whoa  Cool bag!  Real useful information on the construction too

Thanks, Old. I may donate it to a church art sale we are doing next month. We'll see.

I just wanted to get one of his patterns under my belt and following instructions seemed the most fool proof way to move along with it. Jeez Louise I've probably spent 150 on his patterns and never built one. And, I recently bout some sinabroks second hand 1.5mm hole punches and wanted to try them out.

Thanks other Matt. I'm glad everyone likes it. Building it did prompt some stitching pony ideas for sure. Some of the assembly was tough to get going.
