My new pieced bag
Over the summer I made the MSQC Tumbler Bag and really really like it! That is until I got caught in a rain storm last week and didn't have my umbrella! I had to use my bag to save myself and it go totally wet! I decided to patch together one made from leather scraps I found online and used my Juki industrial machine. It was a lot of work but I finished it yesterday and just love it! And wouldn't you know, it's not going to rain again another week! I'm going save my cloth one for summer!

You did a nice job on the purses. I thought the leather one was purchased.
When I need leather I mostly get it from the thrift stores. Always jackets, skirts and pants at good prices. Also Hobby Lobby has scrap bags of leather. You just have to keep going back until you find some you like.
