Project 13: Structured Bag with Rope Handles . I’m thrilled to present my first ever Rope Handle Structured Bag: The Pink Elephant Bag. . (And those of you with mind in the gutter, what do you see, haha!) . When you have been around @beatriceamblard you cannot help but feel inspired by the many bags that had come out of her imagination. She encourages creativity, although I can see the glee in her eyes when I propose a certain project. Later on as I curse myself for having certain features that demand difficult techniques, she just smiles like the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland. But you know what? I’ll do it all over again. Under her guidance, everything is possible. So, come to @amblardleatheratelier You too can make this 👜 . . . . . . . #atelierfoxenrose #maroquinerie #leather #ALAproject13 #structuredbag #ropehandles #thepinkelephantbag #pinkelephant #amblardleatheratelier #elephant #craftsmanship #artisan #artisanleather #italianleather (at Amblard Leather Atelier) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDmwrUIFUaFxB-c-zJ6u7Np_O2JLy-2xhEg4mw0/?igshid=1gjsmw4fy959n

Project 13: Structured Bag with Rope Handles. Hello Ladies, this post will be for you, as it features something you may already have in your closet; but Gents, it may apply to you because you too may have carried bag with this feature: Rope Handles! Can you guess what design will come out of this project? . For this project, the leather amount and cutting may not be as much as my previous Tote Bag; but the technical difficulty gets more challenging and very demanding. Skiving (a technique where you slice off part of the layers of leather in a tapered mode, so that the edges of the object will appear thinner and more elegant) is prominently and more frequently used. . New to me is, of course, the construction of the rope handles. Most of the steps are quite straightforward; but the attaching of the handles to the body of the bag proves to be quite challenging. It involves the least stitching but the most demanding technique and patience. . . . . . . . #atelierfoxenrose #maroquinerie #leather #ALAproject13 #structuredbag #ropehandles #amblardleatheratelier (at Amblard Leather Atelier) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDkqCMcFpXQdhOHRq4bsiRNahDjaB3_-85QD9o0/?igshid=6x8q8w66knqn
