Members crmiller84 Posted May 23, 2020 Members Report Posted May 23, 2020 Stepping out of my comfort zone on this one! My wife has wanted me to make her a purse for several years now, and I never found the time to do it. This year for our anniversary I surprised her with this. There are definitely a few things I would have done differently now that I have assembled one, but I am absolutely thrilled with how this turned out! Made with 5/6 veg tan cowhide, 5/6 oily sides (the black bottom), genuine crocodile hornback lined with pigskin for the closure strap and 8/9 natural veg tan for the straps. The top has a pigskin lining that was stitched and rolled to give the trim around the top, and a double pocket for a cell phone/small wallet on the inner back. Quote
