Cow skin is the new black

Hello there!:)
A few days ago I ran into this amazing fabric market in some small street. After having to buy all of my leather over the internet, I was very glad to see someone selling leather. At first I wanted to make a simple brown leather bag, but then I found this cute little piece of cow skin which I had to take with me.


Leather isn't the easiest material to work with, so I had to do all of the stitching by hand. A lot of work, but totally worth it:)




Here's how it turned out!

  1. You are such a talented lady!! I like the way the cow skin looks but you can't really often meet this print in stores( hardly) it's all full of leopard!) http://vivalalilya.com/
