Looks good Frodo.  Just a thought...maybe round off those sharp points near the left, where it necks down and around the thumb hole, on the exterior.  Like the lines around it.  I have been playing with that lately as well.  Adds a nice touch.

would really like to see that when it's done, I would think you would need to augment the leather around the hole so if your going to line the back side maybe a piece of 4 oz skived  or not but I like it. now you went and got me thinking.

Frodo, one of the things I do to get parallel to the edge stitch lines is to use a groover, even when machine sewing, it gives you a path to follow so you dont have to rely on a edge guide.
