This is my first project that I'm pleased with, that I think actually turned out pretty well. It's simple but I'm happy with it. It's all handstitched. Unfortunately I didn't take a bunch of good pics before I gave it to my aunt.

I stitched the bottom piece to the side panels first so all the pieces were attached and laid flat. The last step was stitching the sides up. I really like the handle style. I'd never tried that before this bag. There's a piece of rope running through inside the handle to help keep the shape. The leather is a chromexcel second I got from Maverick.

Very nice. It looks great. I’ll have to try something like that soon.
