Making The Egg Handbag - Leather Bag Pattern Step by Step
The Egg Handbag if an original design by an unknown designer. Indeed, my mother had this old bags that she loved so much, but it was missing some features and some strength.
I proposed her to rework the original design and to use a wonderful duo of leathers brought to me by @buyleatheronline, my preferred and historical leather supplier. (by the way, use LORD7 when you order at https://buyleatheronline.com, small discount for my followers)
This video was recorded while I was making it for the first time, so I might have taken it in a "meh"-order, and made some mistakes along the way. So, activate the subtitles to get my comments and suggestions in English or French.
