Gator/croc Stitching

Recommended Posts

Hey there. I've got a small piece of gator/croc type leather I want to stitch onto another piece of leather as a lining. The shape of the piece means I'll need to stitch diagonally across the humps and bumps of the croc leather. Are there any tips for stitching over the bumps? Should I score the lining piece so the thread sinks into the bump, or what?

Thanks for any and all comments.

The couple of times i have tried to sew over / through the bumps if your lucky enough to get a needle or awl through one it's really hard to get it out. You might drill the holes with a small bit or you may get lucky and the piece you have can be sewn. The pieces i had i couldn't sew.
