This was a great leather (OAO knock Iron from OA Leather) to work with! A larger bag that fits the work laptop and a ton of other stuff. I made the strap so it can be adjusted between crossbody and just on the shoulder. All handstitched with Ritza thread. The only hardware is zipper on top and two 1 inch buckles.
That looks really great, love it! I'm dreading to think how long the stitching on the strap took...
Thanks. I can’t really say how long it took me but assembly always pales to design. It takes me forever to come up with what I want and actually design the bag and select heardware. Essentially feom concept to cutting pieces. If I had to guess it was probably 2 days after cutting to finished bag.
