I worked with crafting suede, a leather hole punch, and created an interesting combination where you can use your crafting skills along with your crochet skills. Below is a picture of my hand bag for this e-booklet, The Suede Bag. I've played with crafting suede and crocheting around it for a few years now, then I'd put it aside, work on another one of the many WIPs. Then suddenly find it again, and think ..."wow, I've got to do something with this!" So finally, a place where this technique can be utilized! Check out the bags, the crochet designers, and check back for the next 2 volumes of the Strapped for Bags series from
Straight From Today's Designers.
