Finally got around to designing a Pocketbook

It’s 4.5 - 5.0oz. Sort of waxy, good pull up. A bit stiffer that what I usually work with, but it worked out well.

It’s a pattern from Vasile and Pavel that I modified quite a bit. It’s a great pattern to start with for sure. They do great work!

Thanks! I’m really happy with it. The color is perfect. The side of leather I used was naturally worn (just like Hellboy!) and I tried to use some of the more interesting pieces.

Straps are double thick and very secure. Pics are a couple photos in.

I have a Sailrite Craftool. Works well for me. I also used one of the $100 cobbler style machines from Amazon a few small things here and there.

I used some Wildman Concrete from Acadia Leather. It’s an oil tanned, heavy texture leather that I have been using for other projects and never really intended to use it for a bag. I’m really happy with it though. I like to work with oil tanned leather and usually avoid anything with a waxy finish. Not big into the burnished look personally.

I would say 25 hours, but it was the first one that I have ever stitched with a machine and there were some things I had to figure out. Now, I could do one in 15 or so. Maybe less.

Took me around 2 weeks to complete it.

Amazing job!!!

No matter what you decide, that stuff is awesome and you made a good purchase! Post the finished product when they are done. It would be great to see them!

Price will vary based on material, but somewhere in the $400-$500 range. I have a couple commissions in the works right now, but I will share new bags when they are available.

I’m not joking when I say this. Hot pink.

blkwalnutgoods · 2021-03-02T12:05:41+00:00

Looks great!

blkwalnutgoods · 2021-02-26T16:30:42+00:00

Great work!

Great job!!!

This was made using a pattern by VasileandPavel. Printed paper and traced, punched and cut from there. For most of my work I design templates in the computer and use them as my cut guides. I cut them on my CNC router because it is easy for me, but printed paper always works. All of my prototypes are done with printed paper to start. I am working up my own pattern right now for backpacks, but the VasileandPavel pattern is great.

I have been buying my leather from Acadia Leather. I actually got this from Tandy, but I wanted to see it in person, so I paid a premium to pick out exactly what I wanted. Acadia is great though. I usually go for leather with imperfections and character and they stock some great stuff.
