Here are a few of my tests.  I think I've decided to do the easiest method, that is an entirely different method.  I had some 3/16" nylon cord that I used to create my raised lip. I need to get some piping feet for any of these methods, as they'll allow me to tuck the visible stitching in closer.  That would help the most with the cord method because the stitchline preserves the alignment and keeps everything tight.  My current gigantic, deeply serrated foot were pretty rough on the lip, but the marks did mostly rub out.

I'm open to any tips or suggestions.

1/2" grid on the cutting mat.  Posting from phone, I hope the pictures aren't huge.

Not bad, leather was skived to half thickness:

Here's an attempt at a curve.  Ignore the #69 thread, that was an afterthought. Not too bad, a little practice and this could be tidied up:

Backside:

And here's the sample with the cord.  It's much easier, which means a better finished result, I think.  Top, back, and cross section:

 

 

I just figured out how to do piping without a piping foot.  I wish I had a camera to show you but, I just used my right single foot on my machine (CowBoy 4500) an it turned out great. The way I did it, there is no visible stitching. I went to store an looked at factory piping on bags and my way looks just as good. Very happy with the outcome.
