What To Make With Your Old Leather Mini Skirt...

A handbag!  An old leather skirt and some ivory colored lining (both from my stash) were used for this project.
I carefully cut the waistband off the skirt so that it could be used as the shoulder strap.  I also used the existing lining and zipper to create a small zippered pocket for the inside.  The long brown zipper used for the top is one that I had on hand from a previously deconstructed jacket - the color matched perfectly.  I am pretty happy with the results but this bag was given away to a relative.  Anyway, I took some photos before it left my hands.  Here is a slideshow.
