1. MAKE THE PATTERN
Realize the patronage of the satchel. 
2. CUT THE LEATHER
Cut the leather following your template. 
3. TRACE THE SEWING LINE
Then draw the seam line, lined with a decorative line. 
4. WORK THE SEWING
- Chamfer the edges with an edge trimmer.
- Put a bit of tree frog to drown the seam, that is to say to make it invisible.

5. TINTING THE LEATHER
Dye the grain side of the leather with a Fiebing's dye, in this case Fiebing's Black Oil Dye. The reverse side will be dyed with USMC Black - Leather DYE (also from Fiebing's), the finish on the split side being more uncertain since it is not designed to be dyed.
GUIDE: HOW TO DYE LEATHER?
6. ASSEMBLE THE PARTS
After the drying of the different elements, comes the time of assembly. Sewing and riveting the fixing panel (the piece of leather that will be screwed onto the motorcycle) to the rest of the bag.

7. MARK THE STITCHES WITH A ROULETTE
- First mark the stitches with a roulette wheel.
- Diamond/diamond awl drilling All the holes for small parts, and one out of two for bigger things. For this bag it will be all the holes (4mm).
8. CUT AND DYE THE STRIPS
- Cut the strips for chrome buckles in 20 mm.
- Dye the strips with Fiebing's dye.
9. ASSEMBLE THE STRAPS AND LOOPS
- Assemble the 2 straps with rivets.
- Assemble the 2 loops with staples or by sewing.

10. GLUE AND SEW THE SIDES
- Make a collage.
- Sew the sides to the main panel (saddle stitch).
 |
 |
You can also choose to make a corner seam (be careful to adapt your templates well).
CORNER SEWING - SEE THE COMPLETE GUIDE >
11. ATTACH THE STRAPS
Place the strips by riveting. The installation can be done before the side assembly step for more ease. 
12. TOUCH UP DRAWING AND FINISH
There are still the small finishing touches: dye touch-ups and finishing of the edges with beeswax.
