Good job! How thick/heavy was your webbing? I have used nylon webbing to replace a fake leather handle on a leash before and it was hard to get the tension to work to sew through the thickness. I have a Singer Touch and Sew, circa 1966 ish and I had trouble with the thickness, but eventually got it done.
