Was the leather facing difficult to do?? Really looks professional w/ that touch! 2/6/11 11:36 PM
Ericaeli said... Thank you for all the nice comments. NancyZL, the facing was not hard at all. I just measured 2 1/2 inches down from the top of the lining pattern to make a facing pattern. I then used wonder tape to hold the facing onto my lining while I topstitched it into place. I wish I would have cut the lining away from behind the facing, so I will do that for the next bag. 2/7/11 10:06 AM
