Hello my name is Andy I live in Iowa in the USA. I am new to this group. I started leather working as a kid wanting to try to make a knife sheath……I had not done any leather since I was young until recently I saw something that sparked my interest again and now it’s mostly all I want to do!😂 I would consider My leather Work to be pretty rustic. I have been experimenting with bags and such lately. I work as a Wood carver/ sculptor for my day Job……. Below are a couple of the bags I made recently. I am anxious to make some bags using some of the fine detail techniques that I’m learning from Phil!
Thank you all!!
Andy
Hi Andy and welcome to the forum! Thank you for taking the time to introduce yourself to the group and for uploading some of your work.
I like the use of quick release buckles on the 2nd bag. Did you distress them to match the strap hardware? Looks great.
Hey Andy, lovely work there mate. I especially like the bottom one. Ah you definitely dont need to be anxious your bags are lovely and you can see all the different techniques you've used so im sure you wont have any trouble with the slightly different style 😊 welcome to the forum.
