I absolutely loved this challenge. This was my first time working with leather this big and I was ecstatic with this kit. It had a leather punch, a poker, and more than enough thread. This all came packaged with leather that smelled natural right out of the box, a cute box to hold my tools, and perfectly packaged hardware. I will say that I had to break into my personal needles as one of them snapped during the making, but it does not sway my rating at all. The instructions, while in a different language, were clear and concise. I had no problems following them. Compared to the other kit I have purchased from a different company, this is a top tier leather assembly kit that goes above and beyond with providing the necessary materials that can be shipped. The oblique punches were amazing to follow and made my stitching so much neater! Be sure to buy edge paint and glue!! I will 100% be returning to buy the bigger bag in the same color as I cannot fit everything I need into the 18! I took this through a vacation and it went with me EVERYWHERE. This purse held up and I am so proud to tell others that I assembled it and where to get it! Thank you Popsewing for reigniting my love for leatherwork!
This was a great purchase! The bag arrived quicker than expected and was very well packaged. This is the first time I have sewn a DIY bag and found the whole process straightforward and highly addictive! It was a quick sew, around 4 hours and I will be buying another. The completed bag has attracted many compliments, and I am very proud of it! Thank you Popsewing xxx
This was truly an advanced project, but it was fun as well. The leather smells, feels and looks amazing. I had some difficulties attaching the bottom part of the bag to the body, make sure you have a good glue that doesn't take too long to dry. This is the color vert criquet with gold hardware.
