Creating a purse or bag is fairly simple once you've got a basic pattern. You can then take that concept and apply it to different styles and make the bag to your preference.
In this video, Chuck will be making a pattern for a rustic bag with a flap closure.

This guy is so much easier to listen to than most instructional videos. Clear, concise, straight forward, and full of energy. No wasted time. As a person with ADD, I have to say this is refreshing.
Plus if you just close your eyes or look away it's like listening to Sean Penn teach leatherworking.
Best teacher ever!
I bought this purse kit, and modified it a bit. It was spectacularly easy. Thank you for this series and selling the kit. It was my first leather working project, but it won’t be my last.
Great to hear - thank you so much!
That was very brave to demonstrate this pattern. Great job! You made it very understandable. You always do Thank you
Thx for the tutorial, I'm new to leather crafting. I like your explanation, so clear
Thank you, we're so glad you're enjoying the videos!
I been looking for a good video on creating patterns. Thank you again Chuck!
Thank you, John!
I've seen this series and other videos about making leather bags and they have been very informative. One thing I have noticed is missing, though: How to add internal partitions and zippered pockets, and the like, similar to that you would find in commercial items. Otherwise, thans again for your teaching! It's great!
ooh..loveee the black leather bag
I blew this pattern up and used these techniques to make a Leather Back pack 😁👍👍👍
That's great! We wanted people to be able to use this same concept to create all sorts of bags. Thanks for the comment!
would you share the pattern for the backpack? that would be amazing!
this is awesome and helpful! Thanks so much. You teach well too.
Thank you so much!
Excellent tutorial Sir!!!!
Thanks brother very easily explained
Yay !! Love this !! Thank you so much !!
Thank you, Kristina!
Your a excellent teacher and you have a lovely, clear and soothing voice. You're wonderful at wording things in a way it all makes sense and easy to understand. I really enjoyed watching your tutorial.
The one thing I wish was different is the camera zoom. It needed to be zoomed in on your pattern, while you were drawing. I could not see your pattern.
I normally do a lot of RUclips watching on my phone. Unfortunately my phone only allows me to zoom in a very small amount, when watching videos.
For me its easier to learn when I can see and hear the instructions. Because you're so great at teaching, the way you (explain) everything. I could still follow along and learn with no problem. Which made for a very enjoyable video.
Only reason I'm saying anything about close ups on your drawings, Is it maybe helpful to others and me in future vidoes. Plus it may help you get more views and subscribers...
Over all its a great tutorial. You did Great and I enjoyed this video.
Now I'm off to watch your next video. :)
Best Wishes
🙂👍👍
Thank you so much for your suggestion, and we are happy you love watching our tutorials. 😃
Tq Sir. Very informative and a big help with my project.
Hi Chuck, I am new to working with leather and I bought this kit and made it. I have learned so much from your teachings. I would like to know if you would make a bag larger than this one with a zipper and pockets with shoulder straps as well? I have enjoyed every video you have made and look forward to many more. Thank you so much.
Awesome, you are my teacher 😉
My Condolences,and Love to you family
Casio MRW200 on wrist says it all. Thanks man, clean and complete tutorial, ĵbest there is.
I've been working on trying to make myself a new bag, but I've been struggling with the patterns as I've never had to make my own before; I've always used pre-made ones. This really helped me figure out what I'm doing so thanks so much!
GRACIAS ME ENCANTO COMO LO HIZO LA CURVA CON LA TAPA
nice video, thank you sir.
Easy enough.
Chuck how about a leather element for how to put in a zipper.
Just what I have been looking for! You simplify it where I can follow along. Thank you for this video! Just to be sure, is this done with 4 to 5 oz leather? Thanks again!
Hi Karen!
Thanks so much for watching. Yes, this is 4/5 oz. leather!
I know a few ladies who'd like a handmade leather bag for Christmas.
wouldn't the thickness of the leather affect where holes should be? Paper is a lot thinner
What kind of plastic sheeting do you use for your patterns and where can I get it?
what oz veg tan leather should I use to make a bag similar to this? I have some 5-6oz leather....is that too thick?
Hello,
5-6 oz leather will work pretty well, it may be a little thick. Ideally, you should use 4-5 oz leather for bags.
Two questions for you Chuck. First when using suede for lining can you use suede from a fabric store or get suede from a leather supply company. Second question if making molding templates from leather would it work for guns as well. As i am not in a position to purchase blue guns yet
Hi Russell,
On the first question: You can always buy suede from the fabric store, but, you’re really going to pay a lot “per foot” and the quality is iffy at best. I would say go with a leather company, like us (sales pitch), and you’ll get a full cut for about what you’d pay for 3 or 4 ft. there. You’ll also get a higher quality tannage, a much larger piece to work from and the color selection is wide open (we have 21 rich colors). If the fabric store is convenient or you don’t need but a few small pieces then a fabric store will do and you’ll be fine!
On the second question - yes you can use leather to wet mold, a gun will be a bit more difficult but if you can get the leather into the shape you need then absolutely.
@@WeaverLeatherSupply thank you so much for the responses. I absolutely love your videos and even did the feather on a journal im working on and my tooling with your tips brought my quality up 100%.
Thank you so much, Russell!
Hey Chuck, does your wife ever wonder why her kitchen plasticware is full of ink? My wife would kill me if I ever did that. She would first give me a lecture about never using food prep plasticware with my crafts. Then she would ask me to to take a ride with her to the Dollar Store to purchase whatever plasticware I needed. After being married for almost 50 years she’s used to it.

Болтавни больше,чем дела.
You move far too fast for me. I was lost early on and finally had to stop the video. I have never made a leather purse and thought it would be nice to learn, but all I got was confused.
