Here's the finished medicine bag. I did change the idea of a leather strap to a beaded one and I really like how it looks.
Those wonky beads are the only thing I don't like. But the bead sizes are not uniform so that will be something I correct if I do any more of this work.
The bag is small, about 3 1/2" x 4" not including the fringe. My methods might have been a little unorthodox but it turned out well for not buying anything to make it. I was happy to use a little bit of my 23 boxes of beads stash.
The recipient totally loves it!

I really like the beaded strap. It adds a lot of dimension to the bag.
Wow, what a gorgeous bag. Loving those bead decorations on the bag. The strap is perfect for it too.
Is it difficult when sewing through leather? It's something I've never tried.
I used an awl to poke holes first. I would not want to try it without.
Awesome! I love the strap, too.
