Watch Pouch

[lightningad]

I was asked to design a watch pouch for a friend, and after many overly complicated ideas, i decided the best approach was to just grab some veg-tan and have a go doing a simple design.

I'm quite pleased with the result, although when i make the final one, there are a couple of improvements that will be made (both to the production process and to the finished piece).

as ever, always pleased to hear any constructive criticism.

It's looks simple and good. Not sure if the tab that folds over to close it is even...? Looks like one side is cut more diagonal that the other. I like everything else though

I think that was by design...

I recently made something very similarbut I like the liner a lot, nice touch.

I have not gotten into any liners yet, although I really want to.

Did you fold it over on the edges and glue it to the leather then stitch or does it just end with the leather edge?

well spotted - the incorrect angle on the flap was one of the "improvements" i mentioned. It was one of those dumb cut first measure second kind of mistakes! Its also the reason i made a prototype...so i can check for errors (and so i can have a pouch for myself!)

As for the liner - that was glued flat to the flesh side of the veg-tan prior to stitching - no folds as i wanted the liner to be as flat as possible
