Follow me on Instagram! Starting as a hobby in March 2020, Stonecraft Leather quickly turned into a passion. Located in Libertyville, IL, every piece I offer is handcrafted with care, using only the finest materials sourced from around the world. My quaint “Leather Barn” workshop, nestled in the backyard, is where all the magic happens – it’s my little sanctuary.

Patina Update on this now five year old tote.I Patina Update on this now five year old tote.I met my friend and owner of this incredible bag for breakfast today. We’ve not seen each other in person since I went to Cleveland for a business trip way back in 2014.When he asked for a tote bag way back when I started this leather crafting journey some five year plus years ago, I was excited to make him a bag but had no idea he would enjoy it so much.I lined it with waxed canvas and used a piece of Horween Bison from the Tannery Row scrap bin.This bag has been his daily carry. Just look at this patina! It goes everywhere with him. He’s taken it to Ireland and all over the states. Brings me so much joy and happiness knowing I created something that has served him so well over the years.The note on the side of the bag says:NOW IS THE TIME
TO ENJOY BEING ACTIVE
AND SHARE LIFEWhat a great message.

The largest bag I’ve made.I used the @sailrite The largest bag I’ve made.I used the @sailrite duffle pattern as a base then altered a bit. This bag has 4 extra inches compared to the pattern so it’s a large 28 inches side to side. I’ve added a wider front pocket and pleated the interior lining to allow for more room in the front pocket.I’ve used the famous @horweenleather English Dublin and a nylon interior lining.All this was done on the #fabricator sewing machine from Sailrite.
