A friend and local KC artist found a vintage map bag at an army/navy surplus shop. He loved the concept of the bag but didn’t find it met his needs exactly so he decided to make a new bag, exactly the way he wanted it to be.He cut and hand stitched leather added punched pockets to hold his favorite pens and brushes.
