Tutorial on making a messenger bag (PDF Pattern) / with subtitles

Have you noticed that many people make this type of structured leather bag, where regardless of whether the gusset bend outward or inward, the front and back panels tend to bulge or cave in? The main reason for this is the inconsistency in thickness between the gusset and the front/back panels (typically, the edges of the gusset need to be thinned). This issue can be resolved through specific techniques. This tutorial video demonstrates how to keep the front and back panels flat without the use of wooden molds (usually, in factory production, a wooden mold is first created and then used to shape the leather). This messenger bag is all leather both inside and out. It has an external zippered pocket and one internal slip pocket. Using your creativity, with the same pattern, you can also create a bag with zippered pockets both inside and outside. ◎Link to pattern on Lavantia website~ ◎Link to pattern on Etsy store(not free)~ https://lavantia
