Kogin Bags

I am in the process of trialing the making of shoulder bags which incorporate Kogin stitching.  This still needs to be refined but I think the basic design idea is sound.

As I embroidered the front and back in one piece I think I need to leave more distance between the design from the bottom fold on the front.

The back looks fine.

The bag has two pockets and is lined with red fabric.

The other things that have to be refined is the straps and the leather used.

The colour of the straps just isn't right and although a good quality leather was used for the trims I think it is a bit heavy in weight.  (Not sure about this it might just be new and stiff.)

My daughter,  Laura, who works in leather is assembling these for me.  I love this bag she designed, along with her other pieces.

Mother and daughter both make nice designs. Bags are a good showcase for Kogin.

I think when we get the design details sorted the bags will be good.

I agree - a few details to sort out, but the bags will look very fine when you get them sorted out!
