Looks like you are off to a great start.

If you look in the "how I do do that" section you will find great videos on saddle stitching by Nigel @ armitage leather and a burnishing pdf from Hidepounder.

These will help you clean it up a bit.

But it is a really nice effort.

Keep having fun.

I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with.

Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day.

From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.

Yeah thank you for the advice. I will watch and then practice the stitches.

It looks way better and more complex than my first piece.
