When Ella Mae lost her husband last year, she felt like her world had stopped. For weeks, the house was too quiet — until she sat down at her old sewing table.

She began crafting leather bags as a way to heal. Every cut, every stitch, became a piece of her heart stitched back together. It gave her a reason to get up each morning and keep going.

Today, each bag you see here carries more than just leather and thread — it carries Ella Mae’s story of love, loss, and finding hope again.
