I've learned that if you measure out 4x the length of what you have to stitch and then some extra, you'll have enough to do the whole thing with just that little bit extra left. The extra just gives me peace of mind and makes the end easier to stitch

[@denasullivan4134]

It is a simple design, but so classy!

[@shawnmendrek3544]

This will be a nice project, thanks. Looks high quality.

[@NoraEN]

[@teenaidoo8569]

Cool.

[@AnchoredLeatherworks]

Dude... this was awesome. You should keep doing leatherwork videos. I found you looking for scrap leather projects and saw your cord wrap video. You did a much better job in this video. Fantastic.

[@kingduncanthane5216]

Nice!! I am making one now, but I have a question; what did you seal the leather with?

[@homa5378]

I like it very much, you might want to start a KZbin Romero online store. I'll be the glad to order!

[@Romero_Meyer]

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah I am working on an online store but still getting it set up!

[@iydannekatecelis8854]

[@dragonsofthesky7459]

Thanks bruv

[@shawnmendrek3544]

Any recommendations on leather working kits?

[@erinsmith5065]

Love it! The cover recently fell off my Bible and I’ve wanted to recover it. I also have an old leather jacket of my dads just hanging in my closet that I thought I’d like to use to make my cover. I want to do a good job the first time and have read and watched many tutorials. Your method looks perfect for me! One question: what is that stitch called that you use to do the stitching all around so I can learn how to do it? Thank you so much!

[@calebnewton_]

It’s called saddle stitching. Pretty easy to do and there are lots of tutorials online to learn the process!

[@erinsmith5065]

@@calebnewton_ awesome, thanks so much!

[@Romero_Meyer]

That's awesome! I hope it turns out well and that you have fun doing it! Will be special to make out of the jacket too.

[@gloriasanchez-thomas9188]

Are you going to make a video where you use a sewing machine?

[@cherylanderson8024]

When you are punching your stitching holes do you put the punch in the last punch you did?

[@Romero_Meyer]

Yes, and the last two holes if you want a more accurate and straight line.

[@samzero00james]

Amazing. Having you opened your Online store already?

[@trixiejoyce8579]

Hello.. What is that thread like thingy you used...?? That's it have a size..??

[@chris12780]

Where did you get the materials you needed in making it?

[@PhilippTheilen]

How much overlay do i need? 1cm for stiching?

[@hillbillydan4721]

How did you cut the stitch groove? I'm just beginning with leather !

[@Romero_Meyer]

I just scrape a line where stitching will go and then use my stitching fork punch to make the holes.

[@korro5870]

Hullo - Do you take special orders for Bible covers. Please confirm

[@jamiesnider1635]

I’ve measured twice and still failed five times in a row 😅

[@Romero_Meyer]

haha, ah sorry! Cudos for trying 5 times though... I would have taken a long break, haha.
