It was tough work trying to sew through 3 layers of leather and two layers of fabric... i snapped one needle and the machine kept skipping stitches!! I think i needed a shoemakers leather machine for this!!
one or two layers of soft leather seems to work fine on the domestic but more than that and its a nightmare.
Ive never mastered leather on the industrial either, ive tried various leather needles, and thick threads, and wax coated threads etc etc, none seemed to work...any advice??
Anyways it still worked out in the end... see below
fabric from a vintage scarf finishes the top and combines the two leather colours
modern leather jabot in boho autumn colours
or wear it lady gaga style...
craft out
