Leather stitch iPhone pouch purse

leather purse work in progress

 

instructions

 

basically you would take a nice peace of material, which is ridged and firm so that it will not bend too much..(at least for this kind of pouch) and wrap it around your phone to get the size.

Mark up and cut to size. (sharp cutter knife and metal ruler helps).

Take leather glue and glue edge where stitch will run. Clamp with bulldog clips where glued, overnight. (follow instructions for leather glue).

 

The next day either measure and mark up line and distance of holes to stitch through or get a tailor tool to mark up stitch holes. (a wee cogwheel on a handle)

 

In my case I used this tool but used only every 2nd pierce to get a nice appearance - and then drilled! with a 1mm drill all the holes. (as small as you can get)

Stich through with a nice firm (thick) yarn the way it's shown on the picture.. I used linen yarn

Done
