Adding monogram to bag

I'm a novice leatherworker, interested in attempting my first bag. My idea is to recreate this bag (the original is PU) and would love some input on whether this seems do-able for a hobbyist (I've been doing leatherwork for a year and am still building skills) and my plans:

• Chrome tan, medium temper

• Body leather: 1.5 mm

• Piping/handle leather: 0.8 mm

• Leather cord insert, 6 or 7 mm

• Reinforcement in the base so it keeps its shape when put down

Thanks in advance!
