I'm excited by an old leather purse which I've re-purposed as a bike bag. It has a fun gathered leather front which lends itself well to the addition of some reflective tape. I changed the strap so that it can attach easily to the rack of my bike and it seems good to go!
Because I have my wonderful Carradice I don't desperately NEED this bag, so it might become a gift or a doorprize or something. I'm just so pleased with how it turned out!
And it certainly looks classier than the mass market nylon ones on everyone else's bikes out there.

Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI was inspired by your work on Eliza and her saddle bag. I saw this purse and it all came together. So thanks!
