More Works in Progress

I finished a commission for a glasses case a couple of days ago.  The customer collected it this morning and was very pleased with it.  I am too, and will be making some more like it for my Folksy and Etsy shops.  Here it is.

I’ve also been using up the very last of my stock of Absolutely Gorgeous Leather to make one of the smaller bags.  I have one in stock in this leather already but decided the new one would have a bow on it, (surprise, surprise).

As you can see, I haven’t added any eyelets for the strap yet.  I’m mulling over this one as it feels and looks cute just as a basic clutch.  If I add eyelets and a leather padded chain strap it will look similar to this “one I made earlier”.

If anyone’s got any helpful suggestions about adding a strap or not, I’d be pleased to hear them.  Thankyou!
