A perfect ladies' shoulder bag that despite of its humble size can carry a bottle of wine. Which is a very important feature for a ladies' purse. You can stitch it up in a day (or a day and a half). It does require precision cutting skills so some previous leather working experience would be required.
Pattern formats: US Letter, A4, 24" wide, SVG, DXF.

What you are gonna need:
Tools:
Knife or scissors, stitching irons, hole punches, maul or mallet, pair of harness needles, waxed thread, rivet setter if you use rivets, 1” oblong hole punch, 1” round or strap end punch.
