First iPhone sleeve

[motocouture]

Been trying to practice my stitching, so hubby got a new sleeve for his iPhone 7. Used some scrap Horween leather from nstarleather (thank you!), my new French model Knip knife (cheers, geargarcon), and 0.8mm Tiger thread. Still working on my edges sigh. Oh and thanks jlsleather - I can attest that the calculations from your holster pattern work the same for an iPhone in terms of distance for the stitch lines. Front and back shown below

Well done and the stitching looks good. A little bit of practice on the edging and it will look very nice. Brian

Nice.  I have been working on my stitching.  What a difference a a little practice makes.  I owe my improvement to some proper (although cheap) new chisels and a video by Ian Atkinson.  Your stitching looks very good.

Thanks, Brian, much appreciated.  I've actually been reading a couple of your posts on edge finishing, so will try and put some of your wisdom into practice

Thanks! The practice definitely helps, and the Ian Atkinson video is great. I like working on smaller items so there's less to mess up initially ; )

So, hubby misplaced the first sleeve....here is my second go at the same pattern ; )

Looks great. Great angle on the saddle stitch.
