Thanks Friso, I'll check them out.
Like you, I stitch by hand, so I'll pick your brain a little more.....I use a hand stitching tool (like those used for saddle repair), what type needles do you use?

Thanks.



I use the thinnest ones I can fit into an awl.  They go through the leather easier, and leave neater stitches.  You will want to get yourself a marking wheel too.  They lay out your stitch lines where you want them, then I use a punch awl to put the holes into the leather, then stitch through those.
God bless, and sincere thanks to all our fine people in uniform.  You pay for our freedom, and for that we owe you all we can give you.  Thank you.
