Haven’t had a chance to give it a test drive obviously… maybe it will all fall apart and I’ll be scrambling all over the floor.

Well it doesn’t have to survive being squished and deformed in a pocket like a wallet…

Very pretty! One day I’ll be brave enough to try a leather project…

Pretty! At least you’ll have something extra special to celebrate with.

Beautiful! Make sure you sit it where you can see it a couple of times a day. Projects like this need full appreciation! Plus being stuck at home, you can have a little ray of sunshine every time you see it.
Our granddaughter just woke up and saw the photo. She wanted me to scroll back so she could see it again!

It’s true - I look at it several times a day, but then I tend to do that to all my new projects! 
. So sweet it caught your granddaughter’s attention.

Beautiful! And thanks for talking through the whole process including the points where you weren’t confident. Really inspiring to hear and then see what a beautiful piece you ended up with.

Thanks! Yesterday I took my purse for a ride and decided, that yes, I do need it to be .3" wider for everything to work, so resolved to make a second one…

I love the bag!
I’m just getting used to and learning how to work my glowforge. Mainly I etch enamel, paper, wood and sometimes leather for my book projects.
Would you mind sharing the settings you used for cutting and etching?
All settings for non Proofgrade materials are to be found in the Beyond the Manual section. A search there will show many discussions.
Hi @dougphil1, and welcome to the forum! I just used the standard settings for proofgrade medium leather and used Set Focus as well, as thickness can vary a little. Sometimes it is best to test a small part of your materials until you get used to them. Looking forward to see what you make with your Glowforge!

It’s beautiful! Is the blue paint on a layer below the white design? Where did you find the pattern you used? I’m very impressed!

Thanks! I scored the pattern on the masked leather and then peeled just the masking areas where I then applied the paint. After drying, I peeled off the rest of the masking.
The pattern itself I used from an other design I got here!
