thefanninator Report post Posted October 10, 2019 (edited) I recently finished up this mini hand bag, approximately 8 x 5 inches. It's made from D'Annonay 'Vocalou' French calfskin from Maverick Leather. The interior is Bordeaux French goat from RMLS. It's got Brio reinforcement by Luigi Carnevali, also from RMLS. It's hand stitched with Amy Roke linen thread. I used 2.7mm (about 10 per inch) Kevin Lee pricking irons. Edges were creased then painted with black Fenice edge paint. The closure flap has a magnet from Buckleguy. Edited October 10, 2019 by thefanninator Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YinTx Report post Posted October 10, 2019 I really like how you did the bottom of the gusset. Are you willing to share how that is done? YinTx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's a cool gusset. It's basically a rectangle with legs. Then fold the legs across toward each other, glue and stitch. There's an old post on here by Hunio who goes by Huns now. Study the pictures and you can figure it out. Its also in Ellen Valentine's new book Leatherwork School. . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
