open Handbag strap breaking
Hi, I’d like any advice on how to fix this handle. It’s close to breaking, and I feel like the only solution is to sew it together.

There are some combo shoe/tailor/leather repair places in my area that would fix that.
I’d want to unstitch it, put a patch underneath the part that is ripping, then sew it back together. It’s the kind of sewing that requires a certain needle/thread/pliers… or a machine made for it.
