  1. 1. Stitch lines and belt slots, one side or both?

    • ONE side. Both sides is too easy to mark the leather where I didn't want it marked.

    • BOTH sides. Clearer to see where I'm going and where the glue goes.

    • ONE side, but reverse it for the "lefties".

Now, having said that.. one more conversation about the way these are done.


I generally DON'T mark stitch lines on both sides. If yer no smarter'n me, you could git moving along and mark slots on the "back" side, then have to sit there trying to line up the outside AND the slots. OR, you could mark a stitch line down the back, then find that when you run it through a machine, the stitches are just off the side of the 'lines'...


The only issue, for a 'leftie' version (if there is such with a particular item) has to "flip" the pattern and copy the stitch lines and such to the other side. Shouldn't be a BIG issue, and this is the way they've been done so far.

Okay, not so many votes, but looks like about 3 otta 4 rather see the markings on just one side.
