Looking For Suggestions On How To Make This Case

[mlapaglia]

Take a look at the case below. It holds a jewelers magnifying loupe. From what I can see and tell there has to be a small piece glued inside the case along the stitch line to provide a shoulder to stitch between the two sides. A triangle shaped piece would work pretty. one side for the case wall and one side for the case side. Glue and stitch. I thought it might be the side set in a grove but that would make the stitches exposed on the inside.

Thats how I would do it. Anyone got any ideas? is there a better way? Would my way work?

Thanks

It's called a box stitch, and can be done with no welt. You're effectively just sewing at an angle through two pieces of leather. What you are viewing as the side and edge stitching on the case, is actually the top and bottom stitches.

Check your PMs if you haven't.
