The second bag is a small makeup bag / clutch. It is made from a soft red leather and an accent of black and white herringbone. This little bag is great for holding your makeup or other essentials inside a larger tote. Or carry it alone as a small clutch to carry your cell phone, money and keys.
The bag is lined with a black and white striped cotton with an interior pocket. It is topped off with a zipper closure.
It is no secret that I love to sew, especially when I can be creative with the project. Many of these leather projects are designed as I go to fit the pieces of leather.
The big secret is that this bag is made from a red leather jacket. I love giving garments a new life. When using the leather skirts or jackets, I try to use any interesting seams or pockets from the original item in the bag design. With jackets, I often get great pockets which you will see on future bags. So what will be the next transformation?
Create with what ya got-
