Stitch in Gusset Tutorial with Treasure Mallory

[@TheOriginalTakarin]

You have NO idea how helpful this has been for me. I have been trying to figure out how to create / install a U gusset for a project, and this put it all into place for me. Thank you x1000!

1. People are rude, you're amazing! 2. This was very helpful and informative. 3. I'm jealous of your setup. Fantastic. 4. Gorgeous bag!

[@ThePatrickmcdonald87]

I followed this method faithfully and am really happy with the results! This is the best gusset tutorial on KZbin! I tried the running stitch and it's so much faster than the saddle stitch and even better looking! Treasure nailed it!

Hello, Ms. Mallory, You're a genius!!! I love this video as I plan to use the techniques very, very soon. PLZ KEEP EVERYONE PRODCTIVE WITH YOUR SUPERB INGINUITY.......

[@skiddrowe9104]

Hello, Ms. Mallory & Other Crafters, Sometimes when I see different videos, showing how to make certain leather items, I try to enhance the original design. I'm currently making a handbag with the basic concepts above along with using a metal Fairgate Tailors' French Curve for shaping the top of each end section. That is to say, the end sections of the gussets. By doing that the flap will bend over the shape of both gusset curves, giving them a more closed-in appearance. At the same time, Ms. Mallory, I must highly commend you for your great mastery of your design and very "down-to-Earth" teaching techniques. BRAVO!!!! BRAVO!!!! BRAVO!!!! Pease keep the good vibes going.....................& Thank You, Ever-So-Much!!!!!

I use my small hole punch for notches, used to do some snips with scissors then I looked at my tools and went...oh... Thanks, always interesting to hear you talk =)

[@alanabaker2441]

I love all the tutorials from Treasure--so great to follow and I also appreciate that her setup is so accessible. Thank you for all your content!

[@oldguyinavan6295]

Beautiful work!! Thank you for the teaching!

[@walterholmes4609]

I'm a 2 hander but I also like a buck stitch, especially with heavier thread or lace . I think it works fine for this bag. Wetting is chancy on a large bag unless the entire bag is cased . Spot wetting will raise tannins and leave a dark line at the edge. This bag is a classic example of how simple defines elegant.

[@crathus67]

Nice piece, greetings from Brazil!

[@dperisty1]

Great video, as always! I think some crafters refer to the notches/gashes as "darts". That's a quick and consistent method to do them, though!

[@PrimalEdge]

that turned out AMAZING!!! fantastic job! always love your content :)

[@NikkiandMallory]

I never usually read these comments but I appreciate positive energy. THANK YOU!!

[@samgrayeagle3909]

Question at 8:15 that tool you were using to make i straght line at the edge of the leather shouldnt you be using that tool for going down instead of up?

[@CrackedCandy]

So there are three pieces of leather. There is are the bag and the end then there is that long strip that makes this a gusset. How do you measure how wide the strap is to make the gusset? Or how wide is that gusset strap piece? How far from the edge are your stitches?

[@skiddrowe9104]

Hello, Ms. Mallory, I plan to use your design concepts of this video. However, I would like to know how I could install a layer of suede lining. Should I allow a certain measurement to compensate for the inner edges of the suede lining?

[@bijasatterlee5725]

Fantastic!

[@dextardextar]

amazing

[@raymondrussell500]

Wont wetting the piece of leather slightly that is going around the gusset edge make bending easier?

[@MountainFisher]

I only use a stitching saddle for small items too. I made a 48 inch long T board with another small board I clamp to the upside down T's upright to hold belts for sewing on a liner or burnishing the edges with a drill and a round Oak dowel I made, saves a lot of time since I can't afford a sewing machine. As for sanding I have a 1x42 inch belt sander with an 8 inch disc sander. I can hand sew a 50 inch belt in about 90 minutes counting the stitching chisel time in as well with a 5mm spread between stitches. I tried 6mm stitching chisel and the stitches just didn't look right to me so I stuck to the 5mm and I almost never use the 6mm chisel except when splicing belts.

[@shadwellsong]

so great!

[@matthewdenty7760]

Saddle stitch can be annoying but... That’s a thin thread on surface vs heavy waxed hemp in a grove .... and only half stitched vs two passes ?

[@samiam619]

Yeah, I was surprised to see that…

[@Alagachak]

Yeah that is abit fast and easy but... with modern tiger/nylon/etc thread it'll probably hold just fine. I mean we see buckstitched bags holding just fine for years and years already.

[@NikkiandMallory]

Holds perfectly fine!

[@Darkeklaw]

I have a notcher from when I was making patters for foamcraft

[@cornbreadfedkirkpatrick9647]

Such talent amazing

[@cornbreadfedkirkpatrick9647]

Well, your name is Treasure right, and it is a joy watching you create.

[@charlescox290]

That is an interesting technique for hand sewing. What do you do when you run out of thread in the middle of a run?

[@ryanrobicheaux3896]

Estimate better?

[@NikkiandMallory]

Never had that issue. Buuuut attach another piece of thread and keep going!

[@CrackedCandy]

Yes, just put more in and keep going. If you hide the knot on the inside of the back, on the inside of the seam (between the pieces of leather) and then just pick up where you ran out youbwill be fine. If you look at commercial bags, they do this. It's hard to tell only our fellow crafters could tell.

No saddle stitching 🙄🙄.... Will it last 🤔🤔?? 🤔🤔

[@NikkiandMallory]

My customers aren't complaining! They've been using the same bags of mine for YEARS! Step outside your box, try something new.

[@katherinebrown5720]

It'll last, just not as long.

[@bobbyd6968]

@@katherinebrown5720 That’s subjective. People forget that there’s levels of craftsmanship. That thread isn’t going anywhere if stitched correctly. So you mean the terribly made leather good that YOU purchased didn’t last long? 🤔

[@katherinebrown5720]

@@bobbyd6968 I make my own, so no. Also, it's simply the truth. Doesn't mean it won't last a long time. Untuck some, eh?

[@joshuapoche5137]

A saddle stitch is the best quality stitch you can get. This half stitch is just lazy trying to save time on making the bag. I see no difference in this half stitch or using a sewing machine. The bag did come out great and I'm sure it will last a long time. I just wouldn't compare this half stitch to the quality and durability of a true saddle stitch.

[@Handles-R-Lame]

Seriously tho? You do know a sewing machine locks its stitches right? Ask any professional leather worker if they still hand stitch after having to complete more than say 2 orders a week. Further, ask any of their customers if their products ever lose any durability because of it being sewn by a machine. Lastly a "buck stitch" (which is what you see here) is just as strong as any stitch as long as the thread doesnt get cut, same goes for a saddle stitch its a misconception that a saddle stitch doesnt unravel, in this method there is a twist knot instead of a loop knot which is held by tension thats it. So if you pull the opposite end of that stitch line ur stitches will unravel just the same. So idk where you assumed one was better than the other buddy, if saddles stitches were better than ordinary stitches horsemen wouldnt have to get their saddles restitched on an average basis. 🤦‍♂️

Why the american people don't stop talking on vídeos??!!!

Just trying to explain the steps and what we are doing. The videos on our channel are learning videos, not ASMR so we try to explain what we are doing and why.
