New Tiddleyworks Leather Bag Design

Hazel and I (aka The Leather Ladies) have recently taken delivery of another load of leather offcuts containing a good quantity of pieces large enough to make more bags.

The  sorting and dividing-up-between-us process is hilarious “One for you, one for me.  Aawe! I want that one…etc”.  We can be very childish and extremely silly but so far we haven’t come to blows.  So Hazel has pootled back home to her workroom with her stash and I am looking at the mound of super leather that’s threatening to engulf my workroom.  These colours are calling me at the moment.

New honey and tan offcuts

I’m going to try to design a medium sized bag, about 10 inches by 12 inches.  I’ve started cutting out sections and mulling over lining materials etc.

Let’s see how it turns out!  I’ll be back with more news soon.
