Hi all! I finished this bag up a couple of weeks ago. I used my Glowforge to cut out the D-ring and strap tabs, handle parts, and engrave and cut the monogram on the back. Using the laser is a such a huge time saver as I used to cut these small complicated bits by hand. I love the accuracy and being able to design and create within minutes.

Thanks! Yes, I think the stitching should go all around the flap too as it looks finished that way. This thing will look even better as it gets patina too it.

Thank you so much! The handle and small bits were hand stitched and the body was done with my Cobra Class 4 leather machine.
Can’t stop won’t stop! lol My favorite part is using the brand that was on the hide. You can see it on the backside towards the bottom.
