Very nice job. I like the attention to detail, like the stitching on the keeper that matches the belt.

Is it one layer, stitching for show?

Kindest regards

Brian

Thank you!  It is two layers 12/3 to keep the sag out of it.  I used natural bobbin thread to blend in.  I appreciate the comment.

Cool work- looks crisp! What is 12/3 if you dont mind me asking- a 12 oz with a 3 oz backing?

Yes that is correct.  It may be a little heavy for some but it worked out in this case.

Looks great!  I stitch belts all the time on my 3200.  Love it. 

I'm sure your son is very appreciative of your beautiful work.  :)

Nice.

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.

Nicely done!  I'm guessing your son was a Marine?
