azrider Report post Posted April 22, 2011 I typically do checkbook covers out of calf skin or 4-5 oz leather. I will do the inside pockets from the same leather, line the inside, and sew the edges. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JLSleather Report post Posted April 22, 2011 3/4 oz carving back, 1-1/2-2 oz goat liner. Very tough, luxurious feel, yet thin. Ends up with a checkbook that's thinner than the checks in a book, even with pockets for cards - and will last for years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
