  • I made this leather handbag for my girlfriends mom, as per her request. She wanted a genuine bespoke leather bag, that matched the design of her previous fashion item. I gave it my best shot and managed to make one of the best sewn items I have made.
    I used my singer heavy duty machine to sew this bag, and it managed nicely even though this isn't its first rodeo. I used genuine cow leather and various other bits and bobs.
    I'm an engineer based in europe. I make all sorts of stuff, not just leather items. I've been working with leather for about 5 years, I don't really watch any tutorials, and enjoy the thrill of finding solutions out for myself. So my methods are probably wrong, but my results are hopefully right.
    Enjoy,

    I am very impressed with your description of the process and of the result of this project. I have the same Singer Heavy Duty machine, but have not yet achieved similar results sewing leather. I also appreciate that you use glue instead of double-sided tape; less expensive and functional. A very minor point in an otherwise clear and engaging narrative: the ‘strings’ are ‘threads’. Thanks again!

    That machine you’re using is the first machine I ever got. I hated it so much that I upgraded to a Juki TL2010q a couple months later… massive game changer. Check out some industrial machine, I believe the sailrite (sp?) has a zigzag stitch. I make bags using thick vinyl on my Juki with no issues. I just make sure I’m using the right needle for the job so it doesn’t break. The organ brand is amazing. Best needles imo. You should check out different ways to install zippers… there are much easier ways to go about it. Up to you of course. Bag looks great

    You are very talented! I found your channel when I searched for a comparison video for vintage and modern sewing machines. Enjoy your videos. Watching from Green Bay, WI in the USA.

    Nothing negative to say at all. Looks good! Your "bunny ear seem" looks good too, those are called french seems and can be hard to do straight if you arent well practiced. Nice job.

      Hey, I don't speak portugese, but what I understood from your message is you want to see a fanny-pack build. I have actually made a couple already, but have yet to record one, its one of my popular products. I'll make sure to record one!

      Got it, I'm from Brazil, I loved your work style, I also dare to make some pieces in leather, my specialty is wallets, what I asked you to do would be a small, discreet fanny pack, I see many being made available on youtube but they are huge , indiscreet, I would like you to make a small one for the waist and make the PDF template available, it would be a pleasure to copy your style. I already subscribed to your channel, I'm already your fan. Thanks!
