Hi everyone, I am looking for a supplier for scalloped trim for chaps and purses. With and without dots.  Also, leather fringe would be good too. Not Swede, I have that. 
Any supplies out there for these? I am in Arizona.

If you can, make your own. 

This 'lace maker' from Tandy will make fringe as well

A while back I was looking the very same things you are now wanting and everything I found, except one, was all made in faux leather, ie not real leather and came out of China. The one thing I found was a UK seller making fringe in 4 to 6 inches lengths using real leather. I did buy some for my project but later bought the Tandy Lace Maker thingy

Making it yourself you'll have more control on quality and sizing as well as it is far cheaper

Thank you,

I will check that fringe maker out. Also, I would be ok with the faux leather scalloped trim if you have info on where to purchase.

Sorry no. When I found out it was false I deleted all my info on it. But I do remember one thing which rang warning bells - it came off a spool and you bought it by the metre ( by the yard / 3ft to you). Also it came in different widths and was pre-pierced for sewing

It was through ebay.uk. If I find it again I'll post a link

So far I've found the ebay seller I bought the fringe from

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281084271280

They are now doing it in 410mm lengths - about 16 inches

Still looking for the other one, the scalloped type
