Making Leather Tote
A couple of iPhone pics I took while I was making the tote bag.
Here's the body of the bag cutout and the first handle rivetted on.
Here's both handles on, and getting ready to start sewing on that baseplate.
The photos make it look small, but that cutting board is big. A 15 inch laptop just fits in the bag.

Thanks Philip. That bag is nice! It looks like it is all leather strap stitching, no linen thread stitching and no needles involved. There is a Billykirk bag with similar body construction - it has punched holes and thread stitching.

It gives the body of the bag a nice rigid shape, and would be much faster to make because hand-stitching is quite time consuming.
