I made this cosmetic & jewelry travel case for myself. The handle detaches and holds my earrings & rings and all my toiletries go inside. It’s lined with cotton chevron pattern cotton. I made a canvas storage bag for it just because. Constructive feedback so far & looking to get more:
1) use better zipper next time like Riri
2) consider making the zipper longer and over the gussets for bigger opening
3) cover the snaps with leather
4) skive the brown leather seam that meets the orange leather zipper edge (so u don’t see the bulged seam)
What else? My sister would like one and I want the next version to be better.
Thank you!
Nica! You are in Mill Valley! So is my studio. We must connect for coffee and with your friend Jon B!
Great job! You could also forgo the brass hardware on the side straps and do a pretty stitch pattern, saving hardware and time with covering buttons. Yes, interested in gusset edges. Very nice job!
Like colors and attention to detail. How did you get the gusset edges to square up?
very particular case bag, i like the color combination and design.
Looks good, maybe where the handle snaps are , you can make a small bag you can add and remove
