How to Hand Stitch Leather - Saddle Stitch Tutorial, Beginner Leatherwork

Not very easy to follow for a beginner. Will come back and watch when im more experienced.

Perfect video to learn the saddle stitch. Now I can repair my antique holster. Thank you.

I know this is an old video but what size needles are you using and the thread? Just getting into leather work and your video was very helpful watching how to do saddle stitching.

Great video thank you!

how do you protect the skin of your hand while doing such hands on work??

The constantly changing camera angle makes this impossible to follow as a dyslexic and the x doesn’t lock my thread

Here are the three steps that are needed to get saved and be right with God who loved us all, for eternal life with him!
As everyone and anyone can get saved! :[)

1-Admit you’re a sinner and be willing to turn from your own self righteousness to God.

2-Believe onto Jesus Christ, who being the only begotten Son of God He loved, died on the cross, was buried and resurrected for the full forgiveness of our sins, all as a freely given gift out of God’s genine love towards us sinners.

3-Confess onto God, asking to be saved accepting this loving free gift of salvation, to start a new life of being born again, after being saved and forgiven from all your sins. :)

(The romans road to salvation from the King James Bible.)
Romans 3: 10-12+23 (KJB)
10. "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:"
11."There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God."
12."They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one."
23. “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.”

Romans 5: 8-9+12 (KJB)
8. “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."
9."Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him."
12. “Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for all that have sinned:”

Romans 10: 9-10+13 (KJB)
9. “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
10."For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."
13."For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."

Romans 6: 23 (KJB)
“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

(An example of what to pray to God to get saved and forgiven of your sins.)
“Dear God, I am a sinner and need saving. I know I’m not good enough to get to heaven and I need you to save me. I need the righteousness of your son, Jesus Christ.I believe that Jesus is the Lord, who died, was buried and resurrected so that his precious blood can wash away my sins. I trust in him alone to save me. Nothing else. Not my good works or anything else. Only Jesus. I pray this in Jesus’ name, Amen.”

(More related scripture.)
John 3: 15-17 (KJB)
15."That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life."
16."For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
17."For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.”

1 Corinthians 15: 1-4 (KJB)
1."Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2."By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.”
3."For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;”
4."And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”

Hebrews 9: 27-28 (KJB)
27."And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:"
28."So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.”

Ephesians 2: 8-9 (KJB)
8."For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:"
9."Not of works, lest any man should boast.”

Revelation 21: 8 (KJB)
"But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.”

Thanks for making this video. I'm just getting started and this is very useful.

Great skills. Thanks for the lesson.

What thread do you use and recommend and where to get it?

I tried to find a leather worker local, there are a lot of artisans here in the Berkshires but no one returned my calls. So... I bought the stuff to do the job , and more. So once that project is done I'll start on something else. Much different than turning pens but I'm handy and have a bunch of leather in a bag from...no idea. 20/30 years ago? I'll be watching more of your videos, Subscribed!

Wow! You make it look so simple!

What are you using to stain the edges? JUC the OP can’t answer I would appreciate if anyone knows. TIA

That's the most clear and understandable video on stitching I have seen yet. Could this be the start of a revolution in my stitching technique? I think so! Thankyou.
