Billie Jo Brause Report post Posted January 10, 2013 I'm trying something new and looking for some opinions. I'm making myself a pair of chinks and would like to put a little bit of hair on hide in a few spots. The pics show what I'd like to try to do. I only hand stitch, since I have no sewing machine. Do you think this would look okay, or do I have to do an inlaid look? I use waxed white thread. Below the strip of hair is where the fringe will be.

mikesmith648 Report post Posted January 10, 2013 Looks good to me......I would be careful and make the stitching straight and even as it will show up really well on the dark hide. JMHO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Billie Jo Brause Report post Posted January 12, 2013 Thank you mikesmith648. I decided to try inlaid and this is how it is looking so far. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
