Making a fully lined leather handbag - full build with PDF template!

Follow the build process as I make this lady’s handbag (or satchel / shoulder bag) in fully lined 2,6mm vegtan top-grain leather (1,4 and 1,2mm leathers). Download the template here: Leatherwork starter kit : Vegtan leather: LOXX closing mechanism: Utility knife: Strap cutter: Metal ruler: Saddler’s needles: Cutting mat: Stitching chisel: Mallet: Exotic wood slicker: Edge beveler: Thread pack: Fiebing’s Pro Dye: Skiving knife: Cotton gloves: Alcohol burner: Stitch groover: Tokonole: Thread zap: Saphir renovateur: Saddle soap: Leather protection cream: Revolving punch: -------- I make leather products in my spare time, mostly bags, backpacks and small items like wallets and card-holders. I am still learning a ton every time I take on a new project and always appreciate feedback on my creations.a For the moment I don’t take orders as I like to spend too many hours getting the finished product as good as I can : this means that if I were to sell these bags, the selling price would be way more than the bags are worth due to the hours of work involved. As always, do let me know what you think of this creation and this video. If you have any tips or comments about the techniques used, please let me know by dropping a comment below this video :)
