Members Chris of WV Posted May 3, 2011 Members Report Posted May 3, 2011 (edited) I'm interested in making a guitar strap for my Taylor Big Baby... Problem is, the only leather I have large enough to make one is the 3/4 oz. side I got from Tandy that I mentioned in my last post. My question is, do you think it would hold up if I made two pieces for each of my pattern pieces (2 strap bodies and two strap "straps") and then sewed the pieces together? And, were I to do that, should I sew it flesh to grain or flesh to flesh? (Dunno if that made much sense, lol) Thanks, Chris Edited May 3, 2011 by Chris of WV Quote
Ambassador Luke Hatley Posted May 3, 2011 Ambassador Report Posted May 3, 2011 I would sew the two pieces together , then you would 6-8oz and i would glue flesh to flesh you would have a slick side touching your clothes... Quote
Members Chris of WV Posted May 4, 2011 Author Members Report Posted May 4, 2011 Thanks Luke! I ended up tooling my initials on the top piece and then glued two pieces together using regular ol' white craft glue (which holds surprisingly well, lol) and I'm now in the process of punching holes in it for sewing... Might post pictures when I get done, but it's not gonna be pretty... XD Quote
