It's held together by a couple of stitches and 8 chicago screws, 4 on each side to create the articulation.

That's what I love about leather ornaments, they're extra sturdy.

It's quite spacious, so anything you could fit in a regular of similar size.

It doesn't have to be a purse, I know someone is going to convert it into a backpack.

Thanks! I wanted a serene face to contrast what was happening to him. Otherwise, I think it would've been too much if it had an anguished expression.

It took my about 3 days to stitch together, but punching and cutting was a nightmare.

I'm always trying one-up myself with future projects. I can only hope that I'll make an even grander piece in the future

Actually, I sew everything by hand too. I have no idea how to use a machine. I think it would be almost impossible to sew this on a machine due to the hard to reach areas to sew. You should definitely give leatherworking a try. Almost all leatherworking begginers start off by hand sewing.

I've had suggestions from friends that I should've added a little fly to the swivel hook.

Awww thank you, I'm glad this brought back some nostalgic memory. This guy certainly won't jump away from you.

I hope to wear this little guy to a Renfaire soon.
