The Easy Stitch You Haven't Tried (but SHOULD!)... 7 Minute Tutorial

Күн бұрын

When I first saw this stitch ("Norvegese" stitch), I scoured the internet to find a good tutorial so I could try it. Long story short, I didn't find one! Since I always like to make the videos I wish I had found, here you go!
You'll need to be up to speed on the saddle stitch technique, so definitely check out my detailed saddle stitch video if you haven't already! • How to Hand Stitch Lea...
The leather in this wallet is the beautiful Wickett & Craig buck brown traditional harness leather in 3-4oz. You can find small pieces or a whole hide here at Buckle Guy: bit.ly/3ngBR8y (Buckle Guy is an affiliate partner).
Have fun with this one! Happy Crafting, Friends!

That plexiglass demo is the best visual aid I’ve ever seen on KZfaq! I look back over my struggles to get a nice clean saddle stitch, and I’m certain I could have avoided all of that if I’d seen that a year ago! I’d be surprised if we don’t see that on many many other channels now soon. Thanks and well done

Thank you for mentioning that! I personally love when a process is made as crystal clear as possible (pun sort of intended!). I’m am so glad this way of teaching connects with you. Thanks so much for your support! -Tanner

@bobandmaryw4336 3 жыл бұрын

I agree on the demo. I hope this continues to show neato stitches. The Italians for years have been using this stitch and as they say, it's much to do about nothing reallly. It's cool to see someone pick up on that as a decorative saddle stitch which can be quite cool.

I'm retired and wanted to keep my hands and my mind busy, thought this would be one of a couple two three hobby's I would pick up on and use for gift making. I think they mean more when you put your time, love and effort into them for a gift.

If you really want to kick up your "drum solo" you should try weaving a "blue thread" through both sides. That way on a wallet youll have a fancy stitch on the front and back. When I try this I think I'll use a round hole stitching chisel since it's easier to sew through and the stitch covers up the holes anyway... Cool tip, thanks.
