[First Project - Satchel]

Thanks a lot for the complements, and yes, I was scraping a ton of wax off. I have heard of Tiger thread and do plan to order some, but again, there are so many choices...

Does anyone have a "cheat sheet" for ratios of industry standards for the following relationships - leather thickness: thread thickness: hole patern: awl size: needle size? I'd love to not learn the hard way (again) on variables that are seemingly straight forward.

I just completed this bag. It was my first leather project. Any feedback would be great. I'm pretty sure I used the wrong size/type thread (Tandy waxed nylon). Some direction in thread thickness, holes per inch, etc would be awesome.
