Is there a way to machine sew molded cases like shown in the image?  I have seen some recent discussions on special feet.  I am guessing that with the proper foot I could sew close to the raised portion of the case, perhaps leaving more leather for the foot to walk on and then trimming after sewing.

Any hints on how to do this and/or any special feet needed would be greatly appreciated!

I guess with piping feet this can be sewn

I wonder if a zipper foot might work.

Thanks for the responses.  I have not had any experience with the different feet, so I appreciate these recommendations.

I use a special inline foot set on my Cowboy cb4500. The width is about 1/4 inch, or a little less. The presser foot sits behind the alternating inside foot and sews inline on narrow flanges. If your machine is a 441 or clone, you can get these feet from Toledo Industrial Sewing Machines, who are advertisers here.
