Bag Design

A collection of handmade bags exploring pattern design, construction and print - including leather bags made during a bag-making course at London College of Fashion, and screen-printed zippered bags using my own repeat pattern designs on canvas.

Leather Bags

Leather bags made as part of a leather bag making summer course at London College of Fashion, where we learned pattern design and mock-up, materials and finishings sourcing, and construction techniques using industry-standard machines.
