This package contains the PDF pattern, photo and written instructions and a link to a video presentation that will walk you through the process of making an asymmetrical messenger bag lined with leather and shoe stiffener.

The advantage of lining is that you obtain a sturdy bag that will keep its shape over the years.

It also allows you to use thinner leather that will ensure the bag is lightweight. This bag weighs 2.2 pounds (1 kg).
The bag features a removable full leather strap which can be easily adjusted to preferred lengths, and contains an inside sleeve. The bag can be carried by the handle.
You will find a list of materials, hardware and tools in the PDF pattern file. There is also a link to the video presentation.

Advanced beginners project.
