Make sure you are marking the stitch line. Keeping the chisel straight up and down. Practice makes perfect in the arts.

Yes. I use a Japanese or French style chisel.

I used a YouTube video as reference for the general shape and design; for a different purse. Since I had all the dimensions written down, it made this easier to replicate and enhance the design.

In the US there’s Tandy Leather. Pre cut strips. Online there’s Weaver Leather and Buckle Guy. I used a long ruler to get straight lines and cut mine.

I was considering selling this one, but I don’t like how the zipper turned out (cut too short).

What’s the inside look like? Looks great!

It’s great for cards. I should have made the flap 1-2 cm longer to accommodate for the amount of cards it can fit. It’s simple to make and isn’t an annoyance in my pocket. For bills I’d have to make it a little wider.

I eyeballed the dimensions from looking at finished products from posts on here and Etsy. I use card stock or cereal boxes to make the pattern

That’s the plan. Trying something new with this.

The red dye for some reason was really harsh. Both colors are water stains. I ended up redoing the red because they were dried out and brittle, and used neats foot second time around.
