Blue Cocoa | Tri-Fold Handstitched Leather Purse

Brown leather + light blue thread, that was how Blue Cocoa came from.

This purse has three compartments. When you open the main cover, it shows the inner section. After you open the second cover, it has two inside compartments and one zipper pocket. I hope my descriptions are clear. If not, please just go ahead and look at the pictures. This purse is great for organizing all your stuff. A blue seam was hand-stitched around the cover to define its shape.
 
Most parts of the purse were hand-stitched. The leather pieces was first hand cut, and then the holes were hand punched, and the purse was hand stitched.

Enjoy!

Everything But Ordinary - Brown | Leather Clutch Bag

If you like everything but ordinary, you will love this clutch bag.You will love the uneven sides and the unusual cover shape.

This clutch bag has a zipper opening that ensure nothing would fall out. Put your phone, keys money and cards inside, and that's all you need for going to the party. Before cutting the leather hide apart, I saved the piece with the "made in Italy" stamp on the back. Since one large leather hide only had once little stamp on the back, I planned to use this unique piece as the cover of this clutch bag. The leather was made in Italy, yet this clutch bag was made in the USA. Hope you are not confused ;)

 

Up Next.....

I really like this Italian leather hide so I just ordered more.

More purses are coming on the way....

Coffee - Mocha | Leather Purse

- Coffee or mocha?
- Mocha please.

I've had the design ideal of making a large thin purse in mind for a long...time. However, the problem was that most leather was so soft and easy to be bended. It was until I found this Italian leather hide - it's just perfect for the design. Nice brown color with semi-gloss finish.

Cotton lace was added on the top to bring up the soft temper. The straps are made of veg-tanned leather (the color will get deeper and deeper and eventually turn into honey brown color).   The tag is made of the leather piece, lace and a big mother of pearl with the carved letter "M".

Never Full | Leather Knitting Bag

This is really a "never full" purse - if you put water in it.

The purse looks simple to make. However it requires high precision that the length of each strap needs to be perfectly cut, the cuttings on the strap for knitting needs to be in the exact spots. Oh, the preciseness made me sweat. This leather knitting bag comes with a linen bag with leather strap opening. I added my favorite victorian style pink flow fabric in the middle of the linen bag. 

The purse is made of the latest Italian leather high I received. Nice brown color with semi-gloss finish. Italian people are well-known for their hand-made goods. I hope you like this made in the USA leather purse as well.
