That bag handle looks like it would try my patience. It will look so nice when you're done. Can't wait to see.

It's looking great Eunny! I think the leather handles were really the way to go.

Man, I can't wait to see the finished product! Looking awesome already!!!

I can't even see the whole bag... but really that looks amazing. I like the leather strap around the entire bag idea a lot.

I'm cheering you on girl! I can't wait to see it all done!

The bag is looking great, but sewing that strap on has got to to be hell on your fingers.
If you do decide to get a thimble, they have a good one on Joann fabric:

The coin holds the needle in place so it is very easy to use, also as of sunday night the coupon code nova550 is still working, and it is good for 50% off.

The handle will be a great touch! Your sewing looks very precise.

This is going to be so beautiful. I wonder where you get your crafty supplies? Would they be available online?

You knit how many hours a day? (smile) Girl,you've got skills.

Yikes. The good news is that despite the sore thumb, the bag looks great and the strap looks like it's perfect (from what I can see :-))

Try a sailorshand thimble from a marine supply company.
Used to repair sails on boats. It straps around the palm and has a thick mess metal circle at base of thumb so your finger don't have to do all the work.
