I purchased this printed rock leather a few months ago and with an upcoming rock concert, I decided to make another sling bag. I also had purchased some skull zipper pulls, so got to use them! I added a zipper pocket to the back of this one, too. I did have to redo the pattern […]
I have been on a bag making spree lately. I don’t really have any recipients for these bags, and am mostly just making them in case I actually end up selling them. Mostly I’m just trying out some patterns and ideas. This one is based off a picture I saw on Pinterest with the front […]
This is one of my favorite surface designs that I have done. I love the colors of the fish and the drawing turned out really well for this yin yang design. I ordered this in linen and then coated it with Odicoat to preserve it. I cut out the circles and then cut it out […]
I have no person in mind for this, I just wanted to make it. Maybe it will be a gift for someone or it can go towards a potential market booth in the future. I used the same pattern as the mushroom bag earlier. It looks like this and the dimensions are around 10″ x […]
I asked my son to pick out a style of men’s cross-body bags from several pictures I had saved. He picked this one: I made some changes, since that overlap at the sides was going to be extra layers to sew through and I knew my machine would not like it. I boxed the quarters […]
When my family was cleaning out my grandma’s house after she passed, they found a small bin full of deerhides. Some were in decent condition, some were pretty stained up, but there were enough to be used. As I am the only one that really sews or uses leather, they ended up at my house. […]
After I made this whimsical print, I decided I needed to make my daughter something from it. I ordered a few of the versions and this one I ordered in velvet. It doesn’t photograph well, but it does match the green of the design. This purse design is a new one I made this fall […]
This year wasn’t a plentiful year, but I did have several designs that I made. A few I have printed and used for my sewing during the year.
I had a wedding to attend last weekend, and after finally finding a dress to wear, I needed a purse to go with it. I remembered that I had purchased a printed leather from Bespoke Leather Buying Club, so I got to work with a purse. I ended up adjusting a pattern I had drafted […]
Week 51: Sew Something with a Woven Fabric The lining is woven fabric. This was a quick make to go to a Black Stone Cherry concert. I needed a break, so we stayed overnight near the concert venue, which was the smallest we have seen them at. It’s a biker bar with an outdoor concert […]
