Skill Level and Process

Materials and Dimensions

The purse is made from fine embossed grain leather, which is a type of top grain leather, offering durability and a smooth texture. The lining is microfiber leather. Finished dimensions are approximately 11 cm wide, 2 cm deep, and 9 cm high (1 inch = 2.54 cm).

Color Options

This kit is available in two color options: Brown✪DIY Kits and Taupe✪DIY Kits. Choose the one that suits your style.

Why Hand Stitching Lasts Longer

This kit uses the saddle stitch technique, which is a hand-sewing method known for its strength. Unlike machine stitching, which can unravel if a thread breaks, saddle stitching uses two needles and interlocking threads. Even if one thread is cut, the other holds the seam together. This makes hand-stitched items more durable and long-lasting.
