The Breve Hip Bag is a leather bag proportioned for larger bodies. You can wear it as a hip bag or across the chest. The instructions also step you through making the leather strap for the bag- would would make a great belt!

This project was designed for home sewists to dabble in leatherwork with the minimum possible tool purchases. Where possible, we have used tools you probably already have in your garment or quilt sewing kit. This may be different to the specialty tools recommended and used by professional leather-workers or serious hobbyists.

 

Supplies for your Breve Bag

 In addition to some sewing supplies, we have a list of recommended leatherworking supplies over on the Breve Bag product listing. This has been kept to a minimum so that home sewists can dabble in leathermaking, without needing to buy a heap of expensive equipment.
