Finished this one today, the sides were a bit difficult to attach the zipped compartment and the divider sections.  They said to hand sew, but no way would I have got a needle through, so I managed to use the sewing machine, with a bit of wiggling.
I chose to attach snap fasteners too, which was another challenge wiggling the snap tool in to the right place.

I shall use this for charging leads and plug when we go away.

That is flipping clever with leather, very unusual.  I'd be pleased to get a row of straight stitches.

As it neared the top of the grade, it went more slowly. However, it still kept saying, "I—think—I—can, I—think—I—can." It reached the top by drawing on bravery and then went on down the grade, congratulating itself by saying, "I thought I could,  I thought I could."

I hate you @Bodgeitandscarper
Just when I think I'm starting to get less mediocre at sewing and you come along and show that masterpiece.
That really is quite spectacular  :)

and I hope your machine breaks real soon  :P

@Ohsewsimple It's this one from Etsy.  Embroidery time was 112 minutes  :o

@Bill Do not hate me, it's my embroidery machine that has created that masterpiece - the bits I had to sew are where the zip insert and dividers are sewn into the sides, do NOT look too closely at them  :laughing:

Oh, in the hoop design.  Looks a bit like the NCW that I’ve made before……..but not that much embroidery.   :faints:  But when it’s one colour you can just start it up and do something else while it does it’s thing.  Of course that’s when it all goes pear shaped.  :laughing:

Ooooh, I really like that @Bodgeitandscarper. I'm sorely tempted but must realise I have too much to do as it is.....  :P
