erniethemilk Report post Posted November 19, 2015 Hi there I'm a lurker more than poster, and newbie to leather work. I'm trying to figure out how to make stitches like this in leather and in particular how to finish to tie off the ends so they don't come undone. Can anyone help to tell me how to do? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheCyberwolfe Report post Posted November 19, 2015 That is just a couple passes of the needle through each hole and tying it off. If you wrap one of the threads around on of the needles, it makes a knot inside the hole. search YouTube for Nigel Armitage, He has posted some good stitching tutorials that explain it better.
