Another cannage ... what can I say, it is such a gorgeous pattern!
It actually came yesterday but since I was quite disgusted with it's condition I just had to 'fix it up' before I posted a reveal ... the bag was filthy!

I'm quite pleased with the result but you can see for yourself
It falls into a soft puddle of leather so DH helped keep it straight for that one!
And a couple of mod shots - it does fit over my shoulder, at least when I'm not wearing a winter coat!
