| Once a handbag's design and dimensions are finalized, so begin the pattern making process. Every single pattern needs to be made here from the outer handbag's cover, pockets, inside lining, and all the little details that make up the bag. These patterns are used repeatedly for each bag that is made unless the design and dimensions of the bag is altered then new patterns need to be created.

Patterns are then traced onto the leather and cut. Hand cutting leather can be costly at times due to mistakes. |

| Patterns for the bag's inside lining also needs to be traced. |

|
| Once traced, lining also needs to be cut and assembled for sewing. |

| Each bag's outer cover are all hand punched for sewing. I can think of a million different things I could be doing. It's time consuming and LOUD. But who's complaining?

|
| Assembling the bag for handstitching is actually the best part of the process for me because its when the bag begin to take its shape and form. It's seeing your labor come to fruition. |
