~LittleCreek & WillowBranch's Chat thread!!!!

I need something to hold my bantam and duck, so; I took an old leather purse. I cut the lining out and cut the zipper in half. Then I sewed the zipper ends down so the zipper doesn't fall off. Then I put pieces of leather on the ends so the zipper end doesn't cut the bird. I lined the bottom with plastic and tape to prevent poo leaking through, I will use paper towels on the bottom though. Then I lined the top edge (where the zipper was cut away) with leather. I put a small piece of leather in front where the birds breast will rub against. I sewed a piece of leather to the zipper strap so when it is closed can fold it in for looks and extra comfort. Every piece of leather that I sewed on was sewn by hand, by me.




Purse.



Purse open.



Purse closed.



Bottom of purse that is lined with plastic, the glue is still drying.



Extra piece of leather on front for comfort.



Piece of leather that covers where the zipper is folded down, so the bird won't cut it's self.



Other side of leather that covers the folded part of the zipper.



Right piece of leather that lines the top; after I cut away the zipper, the edge was sharp.



Left piece that lines the top.



The half zipper.



A piece of leather that I sewed onto the zipper strap so when it is closed, I can fold it in for extra comfort, and nice looks.



Top of leather piece that is connected to zipper strap.



And, most of all, a bird in the Bird Purse.
 
Bleh, I'm tired!
