What to do with that hide

(1/5) > >>

bjrogg:
I’m certainly not the best leather worker, but I have done a few simple projects.

Don’t need much for this one. A little hide, a scissors, a stapler and a large needle.

First step. Cut lace by cutting it from around the outside of hide.

Then the hard part. Making yourself cut up that hide.

I’m not going to need much hide for this project and a few holes in the right places aren’t going to hurt anything. Makes it a little easier to cut this piece off the hide. No measuring. Just using what I have.

bjrogg:
Then I lay the cut piece over the hide as a rough pattern. I think this spot will work nice and not waste much hide.

bjrogg:
I have these two pieces

bjrogg:
I put them together how I want them and staple them together.
