clutch purse/wallet

[pete]

I still sew by hand but I may get a machine one of these days.

Tell me- how did you sew the front? Did you continue the lining over the edges(from inside) and stitch? If so- how do you cut the black border SO CLOSE to the stitching????

Beautiful work by the way

pete,

I am currently working on another more elaborate wallet, i'll try to put together a mini tutorial on how i do this. I sew the binding along the outside edge of the piece, then wrap around to inside. I then sew the topstitch and trim excess from inside. I hope this makes sense, I'm not quite sure how to word it all. But like I said, I will try and put some pics together as i go on this one im doing now.

Thanks for the compliments also.
