Attaching Fabric Lining To A Leather Bag

Recommended Posts

Hi there,

I am completely new to leather crafting. For my very first project, I would like to make a simple clutch with a fabric lining. I have kid skin leather, some hand sewing tools, and beeswax thread. Will the needles for hand sewing leather and the beeswax thread be too thick for fabric? Is gluing the fabric to the leather a necessity?

Thank you all for any advice you may have!

That's actually a bit of a complicated question. Depends on the type of bag you're making? Are you making a turned bag (sew inside out and then turn it right side up)? If so, you can do a drop in liner (depending on how you design the open of the bag) or you can do a bound edge liner. If you're doing a bag where the stitching is visible on the outside then doing a fabric lining is more difficult. What is the design of the bag you're making?
