Best advice/educational tidbit I got about leather-work was about skill of leather crafter is mostly in the 'coverup/fix/hide mistakes' department. Make that resist splotch look intentional. Make that stray swivel cut look like it goes there.

In the instance of my case... two things went wrong. First it was my brilliant layout to have two ends of the side piece meet right where the latch would be. brilliant! second.... well lets just say i never did take underwater basket weaving in college. my weave went horribly astray.

so.

i cut the ends off the piece, and added a decoration to the latch area!
