Fuzzy is as fuzzy wuz
Aug. 27th, 2005 04:11 pmThis afternoon's wild hare:

Black & yellow faux fur front, with black vinyl sides, back, strap, etc....
The inside is fully lined in black cotton with a welt inset pocket, and the bottom has a piece of very stiff cardboard that I sewed into some vinyl to give it a fighting chance if it gets wet.
The straps are linked into 'D' rings, and the D ring holders are held onto the sides with 3 chrome rivets each side.
The only thing I would do differently would be to reinforce the sides of the purse with some stiff material since even though I reinforced right where the rivets are with some thick leather I'm still afraid it's putting too much stress in the immediate area and will eventually rip out or shorten the life of the vinyl right there.
The zipper is also a salvage from another piece of clothing.
No pattern, 3 hours work, not too shabby.
That's all folks!
Ta.
P.s. x-posted cuz I like showing my goodies (not *that* kind.....you sick monkies)
