I started with a worn out and torn leather jacket and this oh so cute apron. I almost wanted to keep the apron, but since I never wear the numerous ones that I already own I decided that this was a better idea.
I constructed a pattern and made quick work of cutting the pieces to fit.
I decided to use the pattern fabric behind the draw string to not wear on the leather and to add a pop of color to the top of the bag.
Body of the bag completed! From there I decided to add the special touches!
I decided to line it with a bright red and use the apron ties on the cross body strap. I also decided to add tassels on the draw strings for the top of the bag!
Completed! I am super happy with this bag and am thinking of making an embellished jacket next! Till next time stay creative and happy refashioning!

That apron fabric was too good to stay indoors. Wonderful transformation.
This is awesome!! I love the way it turned out and your finishing techniques look quality. Nice concept to completion :)
Definitely a high quality looking bag. Well done!
If there's any material left, you could make a coordinating wallet or coin purse to have a complete set. Love!
