Brindal Report post Posted June 24, 2011 So I decided to start making my own wallet after finishing my starter kit I bought a while back. Right now I'm just piecing together what I believe I'm going to need. If any of you can shed some wisdom on how to do this that would be great. I bought some veg tan leather for my exterior (3-4oz) and I'm looking for a good interior leather to use. I was thinking a haircell lining leather. Also Im curious as to what kind of thread to use. What Im hoping to create is a three section wallet that has two sections for credit card slots and and an area for an ID card. I want to hand stitch the backing to the interior leather but not where it wraps around the edges. I'm thinking a straight stitch. I know I dont have it all figured out yet but this is where I'm at on my project. Thanks for any help you can give. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
