Design Story
From a shark coin purse to a captivating whale shark bag, my design journey took off. Initially considering a zipper mouth, I aimed to capture the whale shark's essence, particularly its thick lips. A stroke of luck led me to discover a perfect fit: a flex frame. Unlike a mere zipper, it promised lifelike appeal and practicality. Dedicated to realizing my vision, I honed my skills, crafting intricate details to mirror the whale shark's charm. Textured fabrics and vibrant colors emerged, echoing the majestic creature's habitat. Challenges and triumphs colored my creative process, resulting in a stunning whale shark bag that marries inspiration, innovation, and fate-a testament to how initial sparks can evolve into awe-inspiring designs.

There are many people out there trying to steal my designs, which has forced me to stop selling patterns. This has directly impacted my ability to make a living. Please support original designs and small businesses, so I can continue creating and sharing future designs. Without your support, I may have to put an end to my dream journey.

Thank you for reaching out, My pattern design at first was aim to share for people that they can make gifts to their love one,however, recently I was noted that unauthorised distrubtion of my design and even some non-small business company are trying to take advancetage of it which totally ruin the original idea of selling the pattern in this low price. Such that I have to stop this until I could find a way to stop that happen. I am so sorry for the inconvenience caused. I am working on it and hopefully I can resume it soon
@@theparchmentleather I really understand it , that's so unfortunate . ur work are super cute tbh
@@jeepelviento3650 I am thinking of the way out, after all, I really enjoy seeing different people working on my pattern and getting different version of it! Sometime they really inspired me!
I would really like to purchase this pattern - but I only see the zipper version on your etsy account.
Awesome! Gonna have to get the materials to give this a try
Thank you!!
Best gift for shark crazed people to use for special occasions 😂
Exactly!
This is so amazing awesome and beautiful!!!
This is INCREDIBLE
I have several friends I may need to make one for 😅
I'm definitely going to be keeping an eye out for materials
Cute and clever. 👍
Do you have any tips on how to start leather work??
I was also wondering how long it takes for something of this size and detail to be crafted?
I really admire your work
I do really love to make some tips for beginner! Let me make some tutorial on the near future
Could you sew this on a machine with faux leather as well?
This cannot sew with machine~ but can hand sew with faux leather
How to do this with regular fabric?
Curious to know if I followed the zipper pattern if I would be able to switch the zipper for this mouth? Zippers are my enemies lol I cannot sew them if my life depended on it 😅😅
You took down the pattern because people were... using your pattern? Don't get me wrong, I'd happily buy the whole purse, if it wasn't over $600 on Etsy. What, are the metal bits plated with gold or something?
I’m devastated the pattern isn’t available for sale on Etsy anymore 😭
Since people have break the rule of using the pattern and many unauthorised use, I have to take legal action against it, after settle the issue, I will put it up again
I love how cute this design is so much I bought the pattern for your zipper bag from your Etsy! What kind of beads did you use for this bag? I don’t know how to search for the kind that have the pin :(
Sorry for the late reply! I will suggest using stone rivet~ that would be way easier than bead
Is there a way to make this without leather, I am good at sewing but I’ve never done leather.
I'm sorry, but what is the thing that metal thing for the mouth called?
Love the designs, cute and stylish! Btw where do you get the mouth clasp? What is it called? Thanks!
Edit: I got my answer in your Pdf patterns
Thank you!! Looking forward to see your work!
What is it called? :(
I guess you can't send it to me too😅
The design of this is utterly gorgeous and I would love to try making it but the pattern on your etsy store looks a bit different from this one, is there another pattern for this or is it just minor differences?
That one was my previous design which using zipper, that not very accurate present the mouth of whale shark. And that would be a bit difficult for beginner
it shows that this pattern is no longer available on your etsy, only the zipper version is there, is there another way to get the pattern?
I am sorry, due to some incident happen recently, I cannot provide this pattern for sale at the moment, I am trying my best to solve it, I will resume it once the issue is settle
I tried to find the pattern in the etsy shop, but it says its unavailable 😭 will it be back??
