Not so bad Simple Bag

I love fabric.
I make bags so that I can use the fabric which is too much to use for clothes.
However, I also realize that I need simple bags, too, so this time I made a plain black bag.

First, cut the leather and lining.

The lining had to be that colorful? Yes!
Sew a pocket on to the lining, then attach the lining to the leather with glue.

Hand sew handle and zipper.

Sew the side to the body.
This part, I used sewing machine because with the leather needle for hand sewing, I would make a hole on the lining fabric.

I made seam allowance of the leather thinner in advance so that I could use sewing machine.

Make a bias tape with similar color, or contrasting color, and wrap the seam allowance with it.

Flip over, then done!

Simple, black leather bag.

I wasn't excited to make such a simple, even boring bag, but, well, it's not so bad.
