I was given a whole bag of A5'ish leather samples a little while back and its took me until December to figure out just what I was going to make with them. These are Andrea's favourite colours and thankfully she loved it :D I was so surprised at how nice it is to sew with, there was something really satisfying using my new leather needles on my machine. Keeping the seams together was a little tricky but using masking tape to hold them together made it easier.
Top Tip: I used double sided sticky tape for holding the letters in place while I sewed!!
I am now tinkering with little leather purses, I'll post photos when they are done.
It is gorgeous! How brave are you to work with leather! I would be daunted. Pink is my favourite colour - I have been gazing lovingly at pink leather filofaxes!!
ReplyDeleteIt was beautiful!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations.
That looks fantastic Emma. I am only just learning to sew and so dress lining fabric gives me a fit of the vapours!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see the purses x
