In spite of my struggles with the Shiloh Satchel, I've made four of the damn things.
1. Oh Deer! It's Gots Pockets! (#ohdearpockets)
2. Mendocino Mermaid Satchel (#mermaidsatchel)
3. The Hulk Satchel (#hulksatchel)
and 4. The Disco Shiloh (#discoshiloh)
Blue Leather from Tandy Leather and Tula Pink True Colors fabric inside and out, with hardware from Pile o'Fabric and Studio Mio (or possibly Voodoo Rabbit - I'm really bad at remembering where I get specific items from).
Anyway, I have a love-hate relationship with leather; it's so pretty when you use it! But it's such a bother to sew!
The geeky side has a leather stitched logo, which I had to hand-stitch on, after pre-piercing the outline.
And the 'undercover' side has the sleeve-join detail from the Star Trek Discovery uniforms:
Although who's to say what's geeky and what's not these days, with Marvel movies in the box-office and Game of Thrones on the TV? Comic heroes, sci-fi, and fantasy are out in the open, even if they're not adopted by everyone.
Very impressive - super finish
