Project 13: Structured Bag with Rope Handles. Hello Ladies, this post will be for you, as it features something you may already have in your closet; but Gents, it may apply to you because you too may have carried bag with this feature: Rope Handles! Can you guess what design will come out of this project? . For this project, the leather amount and cutting may not be as much as my previous Tote Bag; but the technical difficulty gets more challenging and very demanding. Skiving (a technique where you slice off part of the layers of leather in a tapered mode, so that the edges of the object will appear thinner and more elegant) is prominently and more frequently used. . New to me is, of course, the construction of the rope handles. Most of the steps are quite straightforward; but the attaching of the handles to the body of the bag proves to be quite challenging. It involves the least stitching but the most demanding technique and patience. . . . . . . . #atelierfoxenrose #maroquinerie #leather #ALAproject13 #structuredbag #ropehandles #amblardleatheratelier (at Amblard Leather Atelier) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDkqCMcFpXQdhOHRq4bsiRNahDjaB3_-85QD9o0/?igshid=6x8q8w66knqn
