Saddle Bag

[GeoffWood]

Made this bag for my daughter. All the leather has been repurposed from a broken horse saddle. Also using an old stirrup leather for the shoulder strap.

The bag is all held together with waxed thread by hand saddle stitching.

It was a hard job to sew due to the compression of the leather from years of riding.
The bag dimensions are 25cm x 20cm x 8cm

Looks great, a bag like that with care will last a fair few generations
