Redhairing Report post Posted January 24, 2014 in other words, two pieces of leather that are not sewn parallel to each other, they overlap with a 1/2 seam allowance. I have a purse pattern with an overlapped topstitched bottom and sides….not something that will fit into a stitching clam. Can these seams be hand stitched or must they be machine sewn?

Dwight Report post Posted January 24, 2014 Redhairing, . . . while I do not do a lot of hand stitching, . . . as often as not, . . . it is done without a clam or stitching pony. Yeah, . . . it's a little tougher to do, . . . but I get it done, . . . mostly putting it between my knees or laying it off the edge of my work desk. You follow the same procedure, . . . it just takes a bit longer. But, . . . in all honesty, . . if you have a machine available, . . . that would most likely be a lot quicker and easier.
