Hi,
That's a truly lovely piece of work - I love the oak etching, if that's the right word.
I have a question though - the shoulder strap seems quite short, will it not sit high under the arm at that length?
I know women quite often carry shoulder/handbags which sit high under their arms but they're often tiny (and practically useless!) whereas your superb satchel is a decent size for actually putting stuff in!
I'm just curious and, as I say, superb job - wish I was that skilled
