Step 3: Prepare the Zipper Slit Cut a slit for the zipper and apply a thin line of glue around the edges on the left side of the material.
Step 4: Attach the Zipper Glue the zipper into place and sew around it, ensuring to use a leather needle for durability.
Step 5: Assemble the Purse Apply glue along the edges of both parts and press them together, repeating until the two parts are securely glued together.
Step 6: Sew the Parts Together Use a sewing machine or needle and thread to sew the parts together, ensuring a strong and durable seam.
Step 7: Trim and Smooth the Edges Trim any excess material and smooth the edges with sandpaper for a polished finish.
Step 8: Add the Hand Strap Cut a piece of leather cord for the hand strap and attach it to the zipper using either a screw back spike or hand stitching.
