Rolled Edges

Recommended Posts

Can anyone please point me to a tutorial or post which may give me some guidance on how to do a rolled edge on some pieces that I am creating with 7-8 oz tooling leather?

The method obviously employs a lighter piece of leather for the edging, and either a piping or leather strip for the filler of the rolled edge.

Yet, can anyone here share or link to a "best practice" method of hand sewing the rounded edge onto the base leather and successfully meshing it seamlessly with the liner?

Thanks in advance.

Check out the KK Tutorial pinned at the top of the "How do I do that" section. He is making a wallet, but might give you some ideas you can use.

Great!! Thanks a lot, this helps a bunch. I think I can work out how to do something similar, by adapting what was posted.
