plinkercases Report post Posted June 12, 2016 My customer wants a snake skin applique NOT inlay on his holster. The skin he sent is of course thin and I have a few concerns and would some advice/experience one following please and thanks in advance: How to you glue it right to the thin edge line and avoid over gluing on the holster body Would it be a good idea to laminate the skin onto a piece of veg to make the edges less likely to curl up, catch stitches pulling through etc.? Is there a stich other than the saddle stitch that could be used like surging stitch to capture the edge of the thin material? The skin is to wrap around the "front" of the holster and how much do I need to be concerned about the appliques being too tight when the pouch is folded and stitched if it is applied and sewn flat... or is there a way to apply and glue with the pouch wrapped over similar to the way I have seen liners applied on an inside curve? I would love to see some samples of a similar deal if I could. Yours in search of assistance.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
