The Blue Leather Bag

If you tell enough people that you sew, they'll send stuff your way.

Antoine makes falconers' gloves out of upholstery leather scraps and I was telling him I was looking for electric blue leather and he said he had "not quite electric blue" calfskin that he couldn't use because it's not very historical and he would send some.

Thus began my adventure in leather handbag making. You can visit my blog for the whole story as it is quite long (for me!).
