That's my bag!!! Garth and Shelby took great care of me and crafted me an AMAZING bag... I love it!!!! 💜🥰
Yay Lucky lady!! It's absolutely gorgeous!! Congrats on that beautiful bag!!
Thank you for sharing your talent and craft. I have learned so much from this video, and using the stapler is brilliant! It's always great to see how others work with leather. I'll have to play catch-up on your channel. Thanks again!
Thank you for watching! Be sure to check out the ‘Live’ tab as well. Theres hours of videos there too. 👍
I miss your videos. I had to go back and rewatch a few to get a Garth fix
Using staples? Ingenious!!!!!! Thank you! I live in Italy and have access to amazing leather and will definitely give this bag a try!!!
Thank you for making this video.
Oh yeah, I forgot about the lighter trick. You are quite the genius. Much love and thanks.
Wow Wow wow !!! what a beautiful and perfect bag making! Master !!! Thank you for this video
Hello, Iove your tutorials. You explain everything so well that even a beginner like myself can make a bag. Thank you
Thank you so much! We’re glad you enjoyed the video! 😊
What a beautiful job on the bag! You’re precision is top notch!
@Joshua Wilson hi, what is flixzone?
Excellent video and so enjoyable watching you see it up.
Cold video! Thanks for the tips and instructions. I learned a lot. You're a cold cat. I'll be checking out part two soon. I like the stapler idea. I'm going to get one and also some of your double-sided tapes. I watched your skiver video when I first purchased mine a couple of months ago. Your video really taught me tons about skiving. I've yet to use it in making something, but I have it ready, and I've tested it and done a few sample tries. A special thanks for listing the tools. You are definitely the man! For the record, cold means dope or cool. For some reason, people want to think of it as something terrible. Where I'm from, it means good or one of the best. Anyway, thanks again.
Awesome video, Garth. Hope to watch part 2 tomorrow. Have been busy making cotton facemasks, but found time today to watch this excellent video.
Beautiful bag and beautifully crafted!! Great video Garth!
What a beautiful looking bag. Love that purple leather. 😊
Thank you, Vicki!
Good job on those gussets, they’re a pain on a flat bed sewing machine. I have a cylinder arm and they can still be challenging
Oh that’s such a pretty bag.
Love the color and the double sided strap
renee, thank you so much for watching our videos!
Ezlant vidio ..very useful spiealy you are taking during work that is very good what can I say thanks sir
Many many thanks
Drooling over your skiver.
Definitely a must have for production bag making. Check out our skiver video too! 👍🏼
Thank you for awesome tutorials!!! Can you please tell me how to modify the patterns for leather?
Love your videos! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for watching! 🙌🏼
Hey hey Garth great video! I don't even like bucket bags but you make them sooo nice.
Thank you, Gloria!
Pretty much perfect!
Thank you, Cathleen! 👍🏼
Love that color it my favorite purple, it beautiful leather bag,
Thank you, Margaret!
@@MythLeatherCo where did you get that pretty purple leather from?
Pure AWESOMENESS!!!
Great video 👍🏻
Thank you!
Would you mind sharing what metal you use for patterns and how you cut it out? Thanks Ed from Oklahoma.
I have a video for that! 🤣 ua-cam.com/video/6ejqX1Mzn-s/v-deo.htmlsi=YuBKg52d8Gyp4g2u
Why do you mark your seam allowances instead of using a drop down seam guide? It seems like it would take quite a bit of extra time.
Precision. The higher that accuracy when the build is started, the easier things go later down the road without adjustments. It’s faster to go slower of that makes sense… 👍
This is great! I've been wanting to make this bag. I would love more info on the aluminum. How thick and how Do you cut the aluminum. Thanks!
.050”
@@MythLeatherCo how did you cut the aluminum so cleanly
@@dougsobel2571 ua-cam.com/video/6ejqX1Mzn-s/v-deo.html
Thank you very informative instructional video. Please may I ask where you bought the glue applicators from.
In the beginning of your video you say it's "time stamped" but I don't see time stamps anywhere. Where did you hide them? (I've made this bag several times and am about to make my first one out of leather and the time stamps would be very helpful.)
This may be a silly question but why do you flip your templates when cutting?
Nice video! I will try the staple method again for I think I was to close to the seam allowance. Awesome bag!
Thank you!
Hi Garth....Great job...I've been a sculptor for years and have (de)evolved to loose texture, which can be a struggle to loosen up...which means It is a struggle for me at the leather bench to want to hurry....Your videos are a huge benchmark for me to slow up...Questions....I have a bunch of NZ farm raised deer..it pretty much has the hand of domestic but it is around 4oz or a bit less....Im wonder if that is too soft? ...and at least in the intro, you omitted the weight of the black veg for the base.....I hope your channel continues to grow, cuz i'm certain of the distraction....THX
Hi Craig! Thanks for watching my videos. 👍🏼
Slow and steady win the race when it comes to leatherwork in my opinion. There’s certain operations that I’ll rip through on my machine, but still controlled and precise. I think the Deer would a really cool look! I use some really buttery soft leathers for my bags, and give it stability with heavier interfacing on the drop-in liner. Gives the piece a really neat look! The black Dublin and accent is in 4-4.5oz range. Fairly typical weight for most of my stuff. Thanks for the compliments, Craig. I hope it grows too... but that takes content. I’m working on it. 😂
It looks great, how much did you need to modify the pattern? I'm about to attempt using leather
Hi Garth, I love your videos and thank you so much for sharing them with us.
Can you tell me why your flip the temple over after each cut? And how or where did you get the metal temple from?
Thanks.
There’s a right and left piece for this particular design. I make those metal templates. There’s a video for that. 😉
Garth where do you get your metal logos made from? They are compact and very nice looking!
Muito lindas
The original calls for a 6” depth and I find that quite deep. Did you alter that? I’ve just bought the pattern from Swoon.
I’m new to bag making. How would your bag look if you put french seam on opposite side to make it look the same?
The front and back are identical. This bag uses one pattern piece that makes all four panels. You just have to flip it over to make a left or right side. If you mean the sides, you’d need a post-bed machine to accomplish that task. At the time, we didn’t own one. This was my last time making this pattern as we developed our own pattern and methods. Hope that answered your question; thanks for watching!
Garth @ 28:23 where did you get that flat bar from that you said is 1/2 inch on one side and 1/8 inch on the other side?
Thanks.
Where do you get your aluminum templates?
That purple leather!
It was very popular! Unfortunately the leather was a limited run and we can’t get anymore... ☹️
@@MythLeatherCo Bugger :(
Hi Garth, Love this bag in leather. going to try and make it. What length are your straps please.
Jeni, can’t wait to see what you make! The strap on this bag is about 30” in length.
There are 2 Dap Weldwood contact clement glue Which is the correct one? What is the name of the tool that you are applying the glue with. I love your video and all of the tools that you use which are really amazing and especially for a low vision senior citizen which loves working with leather!! I had almost given up because the time that it was taking me to make one bag and i have an industrial machine and all of the sewing machine and maybe later i will obtain some of the other tools but for now I will work with what I have. Thanks so much for sharing
DAP-00273 - The one in red can or small bottle.
@@MythLeatherCo Thanks now I can get the correct one. !!! Thank you so very much for replying and my blessing out to you and your business!! It's so interesting that Barbara and I was near the same age with a love for people and their crafts. Most definitely old school!! You will go far in your skills and craftsmanship!
Thank you for the video, what a gorgeous bag! I’m trying to get more into making leather bags and bought a 1541s. At what ounce do I need to skive leather for bag making? I just bought some 2.5- 3 oz, 1-1.2 mm leather and am hoping I don’t need to skive it. Thank you and keep making the videos, I love them.
Hi Cindy! Thank you for the compliment, and thank you for watching our videos! As a
General rule of thumb, you’ll want to skive the leather to about 1/2 of its original weight. Depending on your bag design and temper of leather, you may not need to skive 2.5-3.0 Oz at all! I would experiment on something small and try it out.
Thank you!
What sewing machine are you using and you noted that you switched machine Why? because the other machine was set up to do top stitching without you changing the foot. What foot is on this machine? and what is the name of the machine if I may ask?
The white machine is a Juki 1508. I use this machine mainly for construction. The silver machine is a Consew 255RB-2. This is my topstitching machine; always equipped with a left only 'zipper foot'
@@MythLeatherCo I love it because you work smart!! I cut everything as well then do all the zippers, etc if working on more than one project with similar features. Thanks for sharing
How did you do the center notch marks, Garth?
so you don't trim the base seam? wouldn't that make it easier to turn? how is your machine different than the 1541s? thanks
Lynda, this bag is tough to turn so I’ve made this a drop in. The 1508 is a vertical hook machine; bobbin loads from the top. 1541 is a horizontal hook; bobbin loads from the side. 1508 is a stronger more expensive machine for sure. I would’ve bought a 1541 if it were available. This one was second hand and was available. Either would be more than adequate for bag making. 👍🏼
So you skive in 5/8”, what is your seam allowance?
Sorry, looks like 1/2”
Where did you get that amazing ruler from? Wow!
Harbor Freight maybe?
Are the purse's for sale? I would love to know the price.
Always! www.mythleatherco.com
Hello, Is your template a different size than the Swoon Bonnie Pattern.
It looks shorter on this video. If so could you let us know the size you are using as it looks so good.
Hi Pollly, yes some of the dimensions have been altered. The overall finished height is about 2” shorter than the original intent. We feel that the overall proportions are better at this height. 👍🏼
@@MythLeatherCo where can we get the swoon Bonnie pattern from?
