bvdv Report post Posted October 9, 2022 (edited) My wife and I are fans of simple Swedish/Japanese design.I appreciate the craftsmanship behind stamped and cut leatherwork as well, but it is not "our style." This is my first hand stitched work that meets my requirements. I had bought a chisel set but found the stitches too short together. So I made this wallet with an awl. The leather was first rubbed with 4 layers of vigenaroon and then with a product I found in our closet. It is a product that makes the leather a little softer but not really darker. You can polish your leather afterwards to a soft natural shine. Edited October 9, 2022 by bvdv Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
