Members Fd3615 Posted January 11, 2013 Members Report Posted January 11, 2013 Two quick projects ... Made a 3x5 pocket notebook cover and a simple sheath to protect one of my leather knifes.

Members Fd3615 Posted January 11, 2013 Author Members Report Posted January 11, 2013 Anyone have a suggestion for terminating a saddle stitch.. Back stitch it and just trim short ? Quote www.smithleatherworks.com PLEASE LIKE MY FACEBOOK PAGE - CLICK HERE
Members Jason Austin Posted January 11, 2013 Members Report Posted January 11, 2013 I usually backstitch 2-4 times and trim short. Haven't had anything come loose yet! Good luck. Quote Longhorn Trail Leather Guild
Contributing Member TwinOaks Posted January 12, 2013 Contributing Member Report Posted January 12, 2013 When I terminate a saddle stitch, I always add a half stitch, so that both threads are on the back of the piece...after back stitching.

Members ReneeCanady Posted January 12, 2013 Members Report Posted January 12, 2013 Very nice projects! For the saddle stitch, I usually back stitch 2-3 times and then do a half stitch so they both end up on back side of project. Quote www.facebook.com/alteredleather
