Got my bag as well - thanks Jan!..

Double layered bottom
Riveted and re-inforced straps
Li'l pocket on the inside
As Jan described it: "xtra strong for heavy belgian beer."

Remember to soak and iron.

back from yoga, i have to tell you that i'm so sorry, there's no more room for purses.
just work on a backpack for all tough guys secretly wearing stockings underneath their heavy denim…

[Seul]

I asked you nicely not to tell the guys!..

[madmonday]

i'm no tough guy & i never hide the fact that i wear stockings under my mid-weight Iron Heart's (18 oz devils are mid weight in the scheme of things).  you also forgot to mention chaps, be secure in your skin.

back to bizness, what's your next project?

[nietenhosen]

ih forum,
just wanted to show you the jeans of my nine years old son which i made for him early oktober this year.

Soaking right now…

Just trying out wet shaping on phone cases, I need to realize that I can't free-hand cut stitch holes.. good thing I have a stitch fork-thing coming in.
