Okay, so I have not done much leather work but know how to stitch and sew. So I wanted to first know if making a 4 slot accordion folder (like the shown reference) for school that will fit my laptop (because the only one I could find is too small) would be a feasible task and would be worth my time as a student over the summer or if i should get a commission done.
For the option of making it myself, I would appreciate any and all advice, including material, videos, or even just tips.
For the option of a commission (because I want it to be unique to me and I dislike large corporations that take the authenticity out of leather) in the area of durham where would you recommend, should I put a commission in online or in person, and how would you suggest I get the idea across, should I draw a reference image of what I want?
Thank you very much for your time and help, I greatly appreciate any and all advice!
